Thanks for that. Glad to see someone just getting something good done. It’s kinda funny but every time I go to the Sacramento Airport I always go to the wrong terminal. The signs change from terminal A and B letters to colors. A being red and B being some other color. My mind goes blank when I go there.

I can remember our family taking that exact off ramp many times when going to my cousin's house in Eagle Rock.
My dad drove on that freeway in '48 when he worked out here early in his career. He had a Model A and it was perfect for that highway back then.
I haven't been on it in a number of years now, but the on ramps still reward HP under foot.

Good one - thanks for posting.

I used to live in Highland Park and remember that exit. The 110 freeway is tight and curvy through Arroyo Seco with crazy short onramps. You have to act fast when making an entry or exit.

I took that route for 11 years when I was going to dental school and when I was working at USC, from 1987 to 1998.

The number of idiots who would last minute swerve left to make the on-ramp was amazing. I saw more than my fair share of accidents.

He deserves a medal.
