I enjoyed the set Chris, thanks for sharing.

As for the completion it is still listed as December 2014 and it looks like it in some of the photos. FWIW, the turbine design at I85 is the same design as I4 and I75

Thanks Alex.  I was thinking about that H.B.  Independence Blvd (US 74) is undergoing big changes right now as they turn that into a freeway between Sharon Amity Rd and Conference Dr.  I hadn't been on that side (east) for awhile and was amazed at how much as been done.  I've never hosted one before, so I'm kind of nervous about that.  If I do it, I'm thinking about early next year after the holidays.  There are more than enough things to see though between the two projects.  I'll try to get pictures of the US 74 widening sometime in the next couple of weeks.  I prefer to do that sort of thing on Sunday mornings when there isn't any traffic.

Every time I click on that link I get a blank page.  Does this not support Firefox?

I'm using Firefox and it works for me. Do you have the latest version? Or is one of your add-ons being a diva?

You've been to enough of them that you should have no trouble at all doing one yourself.
