Billboards for all the tech companies were everywhere. It was thrilling in its own way. You knew this was a prosperous region. You got a taste of the excitement of the day just hitting the highway.<BR/><BR/>It was a startling contrast to the very beautiful natural scenery found on California's Highway 1. I wouldn't want those billboards on that scenic roadway, but in Silicon Valley, they really made the scene.<BR/><BR/>Likewise, today, when you spin off I-465 and onto I-69 towards Fishers, you know that you are heading into a booming area. The billboards are the tip-off, advertizing knew housing mainly. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and there's that First Amendment.Mike Kolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17573721231319244630noreply@blogger.com
