Roads and Travel, A look though Christian Smith’s Eyes:
Christian Smith has always loved Road Signs and Travel. But, why? People will say or think. What about Travel does Christian like? Well, I’m here to tell you. Ever since Elementary School when living in San Antonio he had loved Road Signs and the whole idea of traveling.
It started by his mom, Julie Smith who decided that it would be great having Christian ride the School Bus to and from. She set it up to where HIS stop would be the first going to school and last going home. That way he wouldn’t get confused on when to get off and he would get to see where everyone lived and of course, the Road Signs and sights along the way. Ever since then he’s been in love with the idea of traveling, road trips, and more…
Christian pays close attention to things along the road that we obviously wouldn’t. Like for example, he likes to look at the front and back the Big Green Highway Signs or he’ll see a difference in a city’s street signs, traffic lights, or even pavements. Here’s an observation that he makes when crossing a State or County Line. The pavement changes, here’s an example picture:
This is at the Mississippi-Alabama border on I-10 looking East into Alabama. Notice how the Pavement changes at the State Line. That kind of stuff is what Christian notices all the time.
Believe it or not, there are people take these pictures for fun and as a hobby. There are even websites on the internet in which have many pictures of Road Signs across the country and Christian loves go to those websites. If you would like to see for yourself, go to the following websites; http://www.aaroads.com/, http://www.state-ends.com/, and http://www.okroads.com/. The people take these pictures are called Roadgeeks, Even though their called that, he would rather call them Roadlovers because he believes that the word “geek” is offensive to them even though they may or may not care.
Christian loves road signs and traveling so much that every now and then, he’ll ask this mom to take him on a short road trip or drive to go see a city’s style of road signs. Some cities may have their street signs more or less green or other colors than others. Here would be example. The City of Frisco, TX has greener street signs than the City of Plano, TX does. That is one of many observations Christian can make.
All in all, Christian can make a lot of observations that we often can’t and THAT my friends, is what Christian Smith so special.


Thanks for reading The Christianville Spirit. Christian is special in HIS own way
