Froggie's photos on Flickr
« on: September 16, 2010, 07:42:04 PM »

As mentioned in another thread, I finally got a Flickr Pro account a couple months ago, and have been slowly adding small bits (mostly scenery, non-road-related) here and there.  This evening, I added my first decent road-related coverage, right from Mr. Weaver's "backyard" in Richmond from this past weekend:  Virginia Route 161.

I like it, Mr. Froehlig! :P

But seriously, I do look forward to seeing more, roads or not. You've got some good stuff on your photostream.

Thank you.  I really like the mountain scenery in Virginia so I've mainly been adding that so far.

That said, I added Northbound I-195 Virginia this evening.

A couple of minor Minnesota additions today...much less than I wanted to do, but I got lazy today.

- 4 more photos on the I-494 set, including one which creates a before-widening/after-widening at I-394.

- 7 more photos on the US 10 set, basically filling in gaps in my previous coverage area.

Most of this was today, but I've had a small smattering of other additions over the past month.

- MN 84:  by far the biggest addition, 45 photos along northbound MN 84 from Pine River to about 16 miles north.  An average of almost 3 photos a mile.
- Misc. MN photos:  only 3 right now...2 related to MN 84 and a third from Freeborn County.
- Highway planning maps:  right now this is a catch-all set.  I'll break it down further as I add more material, but this is where I'll be adding scans/images taken of highway-related planning maps I've borrowed/copied/observed over the years.  For now, I have 9 maps up...3 from a 1963 St. Paul, MN planning map, 4 from the 1969 Northern Virginia Major Thoroughfare Plan, 1 from the 1973 EIS for a Granite Falls, MN bypass, and 1 from a 1964 study on the cancelled I-266 Three Sisters Bridge.

Continuing my Minnesota trend of recent months:

- MN 19:  10 photos covering westbound MN 19 between US 169 and Henderson.
- MN 27:  8 photos from various locations between Hoffman and Nelson.
- Misc. MN photos:  2 more photos, one each from MN 26 and MN 84.

A short update, from my post-snowstorm trek back last week.  What VTrans considers a plowed highway.

Been awhile since I updated, so I added some more Minnesota photos today:

- I-35E:  12 photos of northbound I-35E between Mendota Heights and downtown St. Paul.
- Hidden MN 801B:  MN 801B is an official route designation, but don't expect to see it in the field.  3 photos of this connector (formerly known as MN 101) between MN 13 and US 169.
- Misc. MN photos:  Added 4 photos to the miscellaneous Minnesota set, 2 from near Janesville, 1 from Waterville, and 1 from the boondocks of Cass County.

After a long hiatus (just over a year), I added two more small sets this evening, both from a January trip:

- Massachusetts:  7 photos from mostly along northbound MA 10.
- Connecticut:  5 photos, 4 of which were along eastbound CT 4.
