Bridge for ATV

[txdon]

A day's worth of rock collecting.

I also got a trailer load of wood just in case we need it for post and railing where the creek bank and the bridge meet.

The final picture this week is the first piece of "furniture" moved to the party site near the bridge. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Saw the flood warnings for Lee and surrounding counties. Did you and the now famous bridge survive intact?

Just got a report that a road nearby is impassable and it rained about 6" in 24 hours on the already rain soaked ground. I'm further south and don't know about the bridge, but I'm not worried. The bridge is probably the best built thing on the land. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Looks like that ladder has seen better days. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

The The pond further down the gully rose five feet in two days. There were hundreds of thousands of gallons of water that quickly swept under the bridge.

Bird, All week I was wondering "Where did I leave that ladder?" I guess the culvert wasn't the best place to store it. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Not one rock moved on the bridge. It was perfect!

The water was backed up past the culvert from the dam and was about eight inches deep in the culvert and about 2 feet deep right past the culvert.

This weekend I was planing on hanging rock, with all the water, It would be impossible.

What to do? The party is next week.

Well, I headed to the cabin to think, and there in the truck was the answer! I got re-energized, pulled the ladder from the creek, straighten it up, told goathead to hold the ladder....
