Inyo/Butte was on Freewayjim the other day...guess I have more photos to take in Bakersfield after all.
There's a Paul "Bear" Bryant Road in Briarfield, AL. To me, the reason why it's amusing is that only here in Alabama would you have a road named after a former Alabama football coach.

Baltimore has a Gay St. So does Phoenixville, PA. (Yes, I'm 12.)I think the rest of the letters of "LGBTQIA" are feeling left out, here.
:hmmm:On the "Free" section of the Northwest Parkway near Louisville, CO, there is an abandoned/closed industrial subdivision where 2 of the street names are: Tape Drive, and Disc Drive.https://goo.gl/maps/YHGQBN9cZL72Guess the roads were closed/abandoned because they are outdated?

I still fail to see how CDs and DVDs are "outdated", but OK.

Wonder what happened there? 2007 street view along one of the roads shows several office buildings that are obviously no longer there...

I still like having a physical copy of my music, thank you very much, and this will be the case even when I'm 100 years old and streaming is considered "oh my gosh that's what great-grandpa did".

The cloud has done plenty of good things. One of those things is not destroying the physical media industry.
Nanaimo, BC has Dingle Bingle Hill Rd:(https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2150072,-124.0114198,3a,15y,267.64h,88.65t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1szgqwMs9WmUKONtiB55zYiQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) and also Twiggly Wiggly Rd:(https://www.google.com/maps/@49.169334,-123.998591,3a,15.9y,125.88h,90.71t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sFdkRo7sUwv0maqEX3NsRBQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). Apparently a former mayor let his kids name some of the streets.
Could you please explain what "good things" the cloud has done?
