From June - John McCain's billboard turns its back on his past advocacy of immigration reform to pander to the xenophobic right.

From May: Fred and Little Freddie, the two improbably colored winged bison, block part of the Copper Country billboard. I don't think anybody minds.

From January: the new artwork, "Overcome Evil with Good," is blessed and dedicated on the St. Michael's prophetic sign. Does that count as a billboard?

To get anything really interesting and regional, I'd need to drive out of town, north on I-10 West or southeast on I-10 East. This photo dates back to a trip to IKEA outside Phoenix in 2005. Real and fake Indian crafts, olive tasting and a Japanese-American interment camp (exhibit), all at one convenient stop between Tucson and Phoenix!
I had hoped to find you a picture of one of the billboards for THE THING? MYSTERY OF THE DESERT!" east of Tucson, but apparently I've never managed to photograph it at 75 mph.

Hi Karen :)
Well, we won't discuss McCain, but I love billboards 1 and 2! LOL. Actually, the McCain billboard is nicely done. There are some political ones in my neck of the woods that I found myself admiring, but I didn't get back to them. They on on the approach to one of the Bay Area bridges, and I just wasn't in the area, but I might post them at some point.
Just an observation. It's funny that McCain is just now "Fighting for a Secure Border" he's been a senator for how long? I would think the perceived inaction might be something he might want to shy away from. Shrug. What do I know, I am just a democrat. LOL
I love your bill board, Karen! but the last one really caught my eyes. The word GILA in my language (Malay) means crazy!
