Subject: State of Jefferson
While traveling past Mt. Shasta on the way north to Oregon, I found ourselves being in the proposed state of Jefferson. It was in California but some people want to call this area of Northern California and Southern Oregon, Jefferson. That way, the rural farmers and ranchers would be better represented apart from the more populous areas like San Francisco and Los Angeles. Wikipedia describes it in more detail, if you would like to read more about it.
So, I'll show some of this area that I photographed along the highway in a moving car, as a passenger. I hope this is interesting for you all.
Photo No. 1 - I'll start this series with showing you all Mt. Shasta which is within the area of the proposed name. Mt. Shasta is seen much different than what I showed you previously (when I started the vacation and was traveling south). Now it was getting late in the afternoon and there was wildfire smoke everywhere. So it gave it a different look.

Photo No. 11 - Now we see this sign on another hay cover, stating that it is the State of Jefferson. It was getting quite dark now, so the photo was not as clear as it would have been during the middle of the day. I had also the shutter speed quite high, so this kept the ISO level high too.

Photo No. 12 - I had only one chance, traveling at highway speeds, to capture completely all the wording for the State of Jefferson. I was glad that I did. 😀 If it were not for this sign, I would have never known about the state of Jefferson. I have seen it for many years.
