Title: My Flickr Gallery Has Expanded
Post by: mightyace on January 18, 2010, 08:32:37 PM
I've finally started to upload more of my images to my flickr site:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/mightyace

I've added lots of pictures from recent travel.

The highlights:
- Soon to be replaced Button Copy on I-71 from Cincinnati to Columbus plus OH 315.
- Text based button copy at I-80 Exit 241/US 11 in PA
- Lots of local (Nashville and Middle Tennessee photos)

A lot of them have no captions yet, but I'm getting there.  I've still got a backlog on my TN 840 construction pics.

Coolio...did you happen to hit 315 when you were through here?  Wondering if you noticed the absence of the 'Exit Only' placards on the replacement Clearview signs for the Lane Avenue and Ackerman Road exits on the Northbound side.  These were present in the previous button-copy signs, but were omitted from the replacements.

Yes, the pictures are at the end of the OH Road Signs set.  I got pictures northbound from I-70/I-71 to Bethel Road.  (My brother and I stopped at MicroCenter and it was dark so I couldn't get the rest.)

I didn't notice initially, but since you mentioned it, I see it now.

Mmm...MicroCenter.  No trip up 315 is complete without a stop on Bethel Rd. :)

Am I the only one, or does this seem like a safety issue?  Considering that they didn't bother to even mark the pavement with skip-dish, AND this section of road contains drivers from the largest public college in the United States...seems like you're just inviting dangerous driving with last-minute weaving.
