Joel's Walnut, Illinois, page

I'm Joel Bass, and Walnut, IL, is my home town. Last year I downloaded some blurry, black & white aerial photos from MapQuest.com, stitched them together, and colorized the result to get a large view of the village. Below is a small copy of that picture. Click on it to see a larger version, and click anywhere on that to zoom in.
