April 8th - 14th

From TheAmericanRoadside.com "The author of the book on the A1 Diner, Sarah Rolph, is the guest on my latest podcast. It's a complete coincidence that the Food Network decided to shoot there this week...and I just posted the podcast. Sarah is really a wonderful woman and the book is a delight."
--------------

There were talks about Roundabouts and SPUI, and "pronounced as though it's spelled "Spewie." Meet the Single Point Urban Interchange."
