home buying: Great Source For Historic Aerial Photos Of Ann Arbor

It turns out that our own Ann Arbor District Library has a great collection of historic aerial photos showing many Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti neighborhoods from the last 65 years or so.

As a past president of the group it was much more relaxed this year for me because I wasn't in charge of anything and I wasn't presenting. I think this is the first year in the last five that I've been "free".
