I am pretty sure I used my semi-colon correctly in my last paragraph. I used my semi-colon to indicate a pause.
I have two books containing enough maps but definitely not all areas in the world. One was printed in 2006 and the other was printed in 2017. The two books covered some of the same areas. How much changes were there between this 11 period of time? I do not know.
What I do know is this: I think the 2006 version was more accurate.
So far, I noticed at least one typographical error in the name of one road in the 2017 version; I am not sure if the road was already paved in 2006. If such road was already paved in 2006, then it was not named yet in 2006. If they were planning to pave that road in 2006 and I was reading a map containing of what is already paved and to be paved, then erm... anyhow as you can see my book contains many very detailed maps.
I am talking about a very specific part of the book. In other word a very small area in the world. One small local road to be exact which I believe did not exist in 2005 but definitely exist now in 2023. The typographical error in my 2017 book containing many maps either has a typographical error on the map or the street index. Thank goodness the street index did not have both of those road names so I know there was a typographical error and can identify two pages in a book containing at least 494 pages plus front and back cover and more.
There is a discrepancy between a map page and a street index page.
After covering the discrepancy I noted in the 2017 version of the map, I will now move on to compare the 2006 version with the 2017 version of the area.
But first, please allow me to digress. If someone want to make a big map, they can take out my entire 2017 book and tape each page to have one big map one big page instead of 494 pages.
In the preceding paragraphs I was focused on describing one specific named local road. According to my 2017 map this named road is connected to a parkway and a boulevard. I also drove and walked on this road before and can confirm that it also connects to driveways to private properties like homes and more. On the 2017 map, this road did not connect to a major road; however, I drove into it from a major road this year so I think this road might be longer then what was plotted in the 2017 map.
I also compared the 2006 map with the 2017 map for the same area and see subtle differences in road connections. Anyhow, it is now 2023 and how each path is connected is still subject to change (i guess).
Anyhow, I am so happy I am still using all maps available to me. It reminds me of geography class and hearing stories about Marco Polo.
I am very happy to know that there are discrepancies between my 2017 map and the actual 2023 reality because I live very near to this very specific area I am talking about.
It's only 7 am and it's too early to venture out to reconfirm everything I wrote this morning that is why I left all names out in this post and used key words like "road", "boulevard", "parkway".
Hahaha, happy Sunday to all!
