This appeared on Facebook. I thought it might be of interest to people here - especially writers.

Dave,

That is a wonderful find!! I could lose myself in that map and its
comments for a year without noticing the time. Thank you.

Ooooh, cool, thanks. Bookmarked.

The pin/pen merger was also found in Palm Springs, but not
elsewhere in California, as of fifty years ago, when I was in

I found that with my PDF maker and choosing A1 size paper, I could
download a copy. I have also bookmarked the site to check for updates
from time to time.
