James wanted to know if there were other places where one could see two &#8220;entering&#8221; signs simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love the way they managed to post that billboard within the narrow band, too. Crawford successfully attained a little tax revenue from its tiny chunk of Interstate Highway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seriously, is there any reason that this little neck of Crawford actually needs to exist? It doesn&#8217;t seem to serve any purpose, yet Georgia has an overdose of small, misshapen counties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s another example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d424561.2883792928!2d-84.02418751018148!3d33.76363577480249!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x88f5c90d8e66bc73%3A0x7e69bf134b171e81!2sWalton%20County%2C%20GA!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1628345314103!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I experienced a similar situation on I-20 earlier this year when I clipped Walton County, Georgia. That was nowhere near as remarkable as James&#8217; accomplishment however, as my trip through Walton lasted closer to 7,800 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Brief Rant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me pause momentarily for a small rant. I don&#8217;t like how the new Mapquest handles embedded maps, <a href=\"\/blog\/?p=3487\">the only viable option<\/a> when I wish to feature a geo-oddity involving county lines. These are the steps: first one has to specify a location rather than perform a simple drill-down task; then hunt for the option hidden behind the &#8220;Send To&#8221; button and the &#8220;Your Website&#8221; tab. Mapquest will finally generate a code but it doesn&#8217;t provide any preview or customization function. I have to drop it into my website, make a best guess and then adjust the code from within my blog by hand. That&#8217;s unbelievably inconvenient and unresponsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, embedded Mapquest images don&#8217;t appear in Google Reader. If you don&#8217;t see bunch of maps and you want to understand what I&#8217;m talking about, you&#8217;ll need to leave Reader and come to the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><ins datetime=\"2018-08-23T20:37:00+00:00\">[Note to readers: The Mapquest maps stopped working so I switched to Google Maps when I refreshed this page in August 2018]<\/ins><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Difficult Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>But let&#8217;s get back on track and consider James&#8217; question. I turned to the excellent Mob Rule website that caters to the County Counter community. The site provides a page called &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mob-rule.com\/faq.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Difficult Questions<\/a>&#8221; that attempts to determine whether certain major roads touch specific counties or not. There I found some really interesting situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gilchrist County, Florida<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d443389.06388808123!2d-83.09486007161797!3d29.749377035518282!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x88e92021b6166bef%3A0x87c09cbf38c48fd7!2sGilchrist%20County%2C%20FL!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1628345829082!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers heading northbound on U.S. Route 19 through Fanning Springs, Florida will enter Gilchrist County, but drivers heading south will not.

If I&#8217;d had time to do that, then perhaps I&#8217;d have seen better examples than the one James discovered during his travels. With that admission, I don&#8217;t know of other instances on Interstate Highways or major (two digit) U.S. Highways with shorter distances between three counties. Sure, I bet we could find some back-country road, but a highway?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How about it, folks? Is James onto something? Are there equally remarkable instances (other than <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/k8cdNreUJQcTGR84A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the one in Washington, DC<\/a>)?
