Aerial photographs from the Silicon Valley

Hi Viatologists,

Happy New Year! The Worldwide Transportation Library (WWTL) is happy
to begin its 11th year of service. To ring things out, I had the
awesome experience of riding in a zeppelin last week. (To those of
you in the U.S. interior who wouldn't know any better, a zeppelin is a
helium-filled blimp secured by an internal wire frame. It floats in
the air and is quite fabulous.)

Here are some photographs taken from the air, including shots of US
Federal Route 101 and California 85:

Wow, that Michael Summa was a cyclin' fool. Every corner of Colorado
was represented in those shots. Multiple seasons, too...snow in some,
summer skies in others. Lots of things you don't see any more, like
cutout U.S. shields and black-on-white guide signs. As far as more
precisely dating the shots, the only clues are that, first, I-76 was
shown rather than I-80S. That would have been 1975. Second, the
freeway exit signs had milepost based rather than sequential exit
numbers. Not sure when that change took place, but when I drove
through here in 1973 all the exits were sequential. As late as 2003,
you could see some very old signs with the paint shadow of the old
exit number still visible.

There was a transitional period where CO was using the EXIT XXX/MILE XXX
plates. I may have a picture of that somewhere. In the picture I had,
there was a junction with an A-B designation- So the plate read EXIT XXX
A-B and MILE XXX A-B.

Very warm wishes for the New Year to you Mr Rogers. I hope that you
will find the required energy to push large scale Viatology to the
ignorant masses this year and achieve true critical mass. I think you
should concentrate on merchandising this year. In previous years you
have run excellent eductional campaigns, and now the time is right to
get the payback from this education.

Just think of the money you could make if large numbers of car drivers
had a genuine first edition Viatology mug in their cupholders.

That'd be a great photo if you didn't take it from a blimp.
