January 2021 Update Summary

A lot of changes and updated content on AARoads since the first of the year. Went through all of the remaining html pages for Pennsylvania in January and converted them into the WordPress format. Several of these pages were not touched since they were originally created in the early 2000s.  Also added photos from various trips throughout the state between 2005 and 2012 and most of the photos taken by Andy in western Pennsylvania in June 2010.
