when in doubt, use both shapes in one ...



these signs were put up by the city of Concord in the 1960s.  They're made of recycled stop signs.

It was on U.S. 13 Business (Market Street) northbound ahead of Concord Avenue (Delaware 202 north). Unfortunately the sign was carbon copied sometime in the mid-1990s. That screen capture is from 1994, and the sign itself was from when U.S. 202 used to follow Concord Avenue northward from the city to Concord Pike.

How about this one?


Technically, BL 70 doesn't exist here anymore, but a few shields remain.

Now if you take 202 and drop back 1, it's 201

And add one to 341 and its like the old numerical highway game:

nice BL-70!  I only saw one, but then again I was being frog-marched out of town by the sheriff so I wasn't at liberty to really poke around.

subtracting those two numbers, one gets 56

Why? For taking photos? I was there 2 years ago and had NO problems. I wish I had the time to go back and drive around some more.

for stopping in the middle of an intersection to take a long-exposure photo!  This was at 4 in the morning ... I got pulled over, and claimed that I was lost and trying to figure out which way to go through the intersection to get back to the freeway.  He told me, and made sure I found my way!
