Jim, I don't recall having viewed that particular one, but I have glanced through several others. While it's very enjoyable just to stroll through and gawk, it has a way of drawing me in, and I end-up spending time that I had intended to use to do something else. Even doing it for project research has a tendency to lure me to stuff totally unrelated to what I originally set out to find.
A lot of the stuff Charlie's showing is in his area, and when I visit, he often points out areas where there were tracks or railroad facilities at one time, or I get a bit of history on areas through which we pass. I find it very enjoyable to see and to hear the stories behind what I'm seeing or would have seen had I been there in an earlier era, and it also encourages me to be more observant.
