Crystal Cave was breeze getting to.  Probably doesn't hurt the bulk of traffic on Generals Highway enters on CA 198.  I almost always enter on CA 180.  I spent the evening swimming and eating ribs at friend's house.

Off-Topic / MASSIVE E-skip Opening on FM (...
Last post by Route66Fan - Today at 01:20:30 AM
Here are all of the FM radio stations that I logged, via E-skip, with an autologger program, on 7/4/2025, from Carrollton, MO & the times that they were received.

Tuner used is an SDRPlay RSP1A.

Antenna used is a late 80's-early 90's ChannelMaster outdoor VHF\UHF TV & FM antenna with a couple signal boosters.

Some of these came in over semi-local FM radio stations.

FM radio stations are listed in order from closest to farthest.

Mileage is approximate.

My holiday travel plans were canceled (my wife went to Walmart without me).

Instead I made tacos.

I'm sad to tell you that Friends of Madison Arts Commission, Pride San Antonio, Northalsted Business Alliance, and other local organizations that fund the rainbows are letting all the roads they maintain go to shit.

I don't know if it's because I've been up since yesterday, but the idea of a LGBT organization maintaining roads seems hilarious to me for no other reason than the absurdity of the concept.
Oh, great, didn't realize it's available that way. Can I book a couple crosswalks for some other messages?

Last post by oscar - Today at 12:54:59 AM
Before going after rainbow crosswalks, the current administration heavy-handedly pushed (successfully) for the local D.C. government to remove the extensive pavement markings on Black Lives Matter Plaza.

I'm not crazy about the heavy-handedness (typical for the current administration, it's going to be a long four years), or even the previous crackdown on humorous messages on VMSes. But in an area with a serious problem with pedestrians getting killed in crosswalks, I'm in favor of transportation officials tending to their knitting, and keeping their crosswalk efforts focused on pedestrian safety. Though I'm unsure about the pride markings getting in the way of motorists stopping for pedestrians carelessly crossing streets while looking at their phones. For example, the flag in Liliana's profile has plenty of white, something I think is always a good thing for crosswalks, especially at night.

WRT the competence of DOT Secretary Duffy, remember that he started his service making the right noises, yelling at the Pentagon about their flying helicopters too damn close to incoming passenger flights at adjacent National Airport, after an Army helicopter collided with an incoming jet, killing 70 people.

I seem to recall at the beginning of Duffy's term of office, there was a big push to get rid of a whole bunch of those lower level professionals. We had a lower level professional from another agency who was very angry about it make a thread about it on this forum, even.

I don't know of any particular LGBT organization that has done it, but interest groups volunteering to take care of potholes and trash and other things that city governments won't do in under-served areas is a way that they sometimes try to win support for whatever their cause is.
