well I am mostly loaded... I need to semi cut my decking.. and load that up.

I am going to cut it down to 4' here so I can put it in the bed. I don't want too much weight up top on the rack. I am not cutting it all to length ahead.. because I think this bridge is going to want to taper. It needs to be narrower at the "far" end. to fit between the ledge, and flare wider on this end because the approach will not be straight on.

'bout to come a bucket load of rain our way - if the sirens go off - I'm outta here - saw a few storm chasers head past on I 30. Looks like a big Cell is headed our way

well the new lumber hauling method was in improvement.. but it still needs work.

and man was it work getting out there. I was perhaps a 1/2 mile out... I had a bit of weight in the vehicle...and there are places it is quite lumpy.. and rocky... :o

I have the bridge in place.. and most of the decking on. I did run out.. :roll: :roll:

It is not a straight shot to it. there is a bit of a turn at each end.. as you get on or off. So my first few pieces of decking on the other side I cut longer than the 24" so that meant I could not get 2 pieces out of each piece.

So I will have to go back out.. sometime. I might change some of the other pieces I have installed also. :thinking:

this one might be hairy.. It is 24" wide.. and on one side.. it is a 5' drop to the water. It also sloped.. uphill one way. and as I said you have to make a sharp turn to get onto it. sharp turn and fairly technical on either end. :thinking: :o :o

none [alcohol] at all.

One needs to be clean and dry from drugs or alcohol to do ceremony, and one can be asked at any time.. only a moments notice for ceremony.. therefor to serve in this way... one does not drink..... shruggy
