I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- Description of Subject Matter: Carroll Creek Linear Park
After Hurricane Agnes raged through Maryland in 1976, downtown Frederick was left under as much as 3 feet of water in some places. With the downtown area shut down for months, city planners began working on the Carroll Creek flood control project, which took 30 years to come to fruition. The plan successfully put the creek underground in 1993, with a waist-deep 1.3 mile channel waterway with concrete banks 40 feet wide. Today we have the beautiful Carroll Creek Linear Park through downtown Frederick.
The $60 million flood control project made Carroll Creek Linear Park possible with its brick walkways, many bridges, fountains and sculptures. The first phase of the park, from Court Street to Carroll Street, was Downtown Frederick Md Sidewalk Artcompleted in 2006, costing $10.6 million.
Carroll Creek Linear Park has revitalized the downtown area with brick pedestrian paths, water features, planters with shade trees and plantings, pedestrian bridges and a 350-seat amphitheater. Over 73,000 square feet of commercial space has been built along the finished area of the park, creating and estimated 1500 jobs and $2.7 million in annual tax revenue for the City and the County.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
