A
special thank you to Jim Thalacker of Big Pine Key, Florida
for sending me these aerial photographs of Redding and Georgetown
in the 1960's and 1970's.
These
are all images that I have never seen before and many of them
I cannot even describe. I have posted the images I could identify,
more will be posted soon.

Chalburn Road looking
east. The white in the upper right is not snow, it is clay
and ash left over from a lime kiln used to make quicklime
or cement. The main Limestone quarry is the gray area to the
left (north) of the white debris field..
I think this is
the Boys Scout Camp in West Redding

Jim's
photos raised the question: what other aerial images of Redding
might be out there to discover? I was able to find images
of 1934 Redding/Georgetown and 2004 Redding/Georgetown. I'm
sure there are more out there but for starters this is great
stuff!
