About this Group

Roadside attractions that capture your interest!
'Would I stop, turn the car around to get a better look at this?'
This is a group devoted to The Roadside, i.e. vintage gas stations, unique tourist traps, old roadside art & signs, unusual architecture, yesterday's diners, dives, bars, and other odd and unique discoveries made alongside the road. These sights have you stop, take a detour, and get out of the car to explore. Sometimes you'll hear about things that make you want to grab your suitcase and throw it in the car to take a road trip. It's NOT what's on the road, rather it's those things that capture our curiosity and entice us to pull off the road. These Roadside sightings are unique, uncommon, rare, or forgotten by time.
*Reminder to all Artists and photographers*, GROUP RULES - Only 1 work submitted per day! - No overly processed or poor quality images - People should not be recognizable. - All submitted works must have a description, keywords and be family friendly. Please - No macros or close-ups, we want to see the entire place or item. REMEMBER, the road cannot be the subject of your artwork!
