Boy, Gary! It looks better and better with each Fo-Toe. This is looking to be another gorgeously everyday mundanely beautiful bridge.
... and ,uh ... my bad ... the fish were so small on the screen that I didn't look closely enough to see that tremendous underbite that is so "Largemouth!" I was going on color and fin location. But once I made a snudge on the laptop screen with my nose, I could see that protruding lower jaw. That little guy hitting a lure almost as big as it was ... so typical! If it's shiney and it moves, they have no fear ... hit and run is their game! Bass are so much fun! 8-)
I was just thinking about the concrete "down in the dip" and wondered if there is a drain somewhere down under that bridge! I don't know if you guys get the same gullywashers that drown frogs across the Gulf there in Tey-Hahss, but it seems to me that without a drain of some sort under that bridge, only HumVees and Jeeps with snorkle intake and exhaust would be able to negotiate that street during a downpour!
HMmmmmm! I think I spotted a very small (easily stopped up with a little trash) gutter drain about midships under the bridge. I'll assume there's another on the side we can't see. I don't see that sad excuse for a gutter drain doing much in a real downpour, but it's probably better than no drain at all.
I was jus' wonderin' out loud ... usin' the keyboard!
But, hey, Bubba!! You have for sure earned the title, "Herr Bridgemiester!"
