We've Come A Long Way Since 1918
Check this craziness out. It doesn't really have anything to do with us locally but this picture was included with an article on
Iowa's Department of Transportation turning 100 and I thought it was pretty effective in illustrating how easy we have it these days.
The funny part to me was the picture caption:
Model T on the Lincoln Highway between Ames and Nevada, 1918
Wow, can you imagine driving on
that highway?
