Cor's goog sat-map link threw me back to my childhood.
(1st EV-related stuff)
Cor's link shows the timeline of deconstruction of the
Mathilda overpass off-ramp, and that area reclaimed as a
small public parking lot (close to both the bus & train
station).
I only saw the back of the EVSE Cor mentioned, which looks
like an Eaton L2 EVSE. Plugshare.com does not list that
EVSE. *I request someone in the Sunnyvale/Silicon-Valley
area document that L2 EVSE's details with pictures, and
upload it (add a charger) to plugshare.com
(offt - personal history ... the caffeine in the dentist's
tooth-pull pain-dullers has got my brain rushing)
Those streets, Evelyn & Mathilda are very close to where I
grew up, and I used to walk those streets as a boy to my
elementary & later, jr-high school.
Looking west on Evelyn away from the Mathilda overpass
https://goo.gl/maps/PVhfQYQvxE1hcHGq7
is the intersection of Mary and Evelyn
https://goo.gl/maps/G9RoV3eMuQcq8Cu67
which I used to cross to walk to either school.
The house I grew up on is near
https://goo.gl/maps/y3AFStRGA4bYrXK16
note the post-WWII 1950's (inexpensively made) flat
roof homes.
So much has changed, since I was a boy. The pear, cherry,
apricot, & walnut orchards I walked through, and the
Libby's cannery I passed by daily to get to that
intersection, are now gone, ... all paved over ...

As I walked by Libby's cannery in the 1960's, I saw
their new (at the time) water tower being constructed,
as each curved section of red-primer painted steel
were lifted, then welded into place.
Note in image: the two Mofett NAS air-ship hangars
(#2 ) shown in the background. A WashDC museum
displayed early photos of Moffet NAS back when airships
ruled the skies.

giant hangar #1

of which, google has now taken over ownership of

Lastly, when I moved to San Antonio, and visited Willie
at his farm, he asked me, 'What made you pick-up
(give-up everything) and move here (to Texas)'. I said,
'there is very little left of what I grew-up-with
(everything has dramatically changed)'. Things
constantly are changing in Silicon Valley
(they have way too much money, & will spend it)
