Since I got home a little bit early this afternoon, and since kaottic97 got me the correct link, I did a few more updates to the pages.
OK, OK, I did a second August update. Partially, this was to reflect further updates to Joel’s sites (i.e., I changed his site to have the ![[Under Construction]](https://www.cahighways.org/logos/underconst.gif){kind=small}
logo (under construction/renovation), and corrected the link for the Elvas Freeway and C-Block History.
Reviewed the July CTC Summary and Web Books. They made life harder for me; I can no longer easily walk the directory for book items, but have to follow the links from the Acrobat timed agenda. So it goes–when does government ever make life easy :-). Still, I noted the following items for inclusion:
-
