New photos added to history section  

 Some new photos have been added to the history section.

These are aerial photos taken from an Estes model rocket in the summer of either 1976 or 1977. The rocket was launched from the vacant land along west Campbell by U.T.D.

At the time of these photographs, Campbell road was being widened to the size it is today. Previously it was a simple blacktop road going both directions.

The film in the camera aboard the rocket was old 110 film and the lens operated to flip the image horizontally. Before the days of digital scanning and Photoshop-like programs, you would have to hold the picture in front of a mirror to see it at the correct orientation. I flipped the photograph digitally so the orientation is correct.
