Yup. We ought to go back and re-shoot them. That's the urge I get constantly on 
looking at my own decades-old pics.

I've never before seen anything beginning to approach the wealth of views of 
this one short stretch of street. Roberta didn't wait for the perfect shot, she 
just clicked, clicked, clicked. Quantity really does have its virtues.

Two observations:

1. In most pictures, North St. looks like an upgrade. PAT0002 almost uniquely 
makes it look like a downgrade. A really careful study of the topo map elicits 
the conclusion that it is probably nearly level, though ever so slightly higher 
at the Perrysville Ave. end.

2. PAT0020 proves that at least one operator didn't mind having Ms Hill taking 
his picture.
