U.S. Route 27

Right on Weston backyard, and I didn't know all this:

In Florida, US 27 has been designated the Claude Pepper Memorial Highway by the Florida State Legislature. It was named after long-time Floridian congressman Claude Pepper. In Broward County, everything west of US 27 is protected wetlands. It is colloquially termed "Bloody 27" due to the high rate of crashes on it.
