What a fustercluck on the bridge this afternoon

[ontheriver]

Just before 2:00 I heard a loud boom on the bridge. Some sort of vehicle was carrying a crane or maybe earth mover. That driver had a very bad afternoon. SMNEWSNET had a short blurb about no injuries. Traffic is slowly moving now. Glad no one was hurt. The people stuck at least had a great view.

I heard that from my house, had no idea what I had heard.

It was loud. Usually, the bridge sounds don't get my attention. It's like white noise. I do notice when it's quiet.

When the house in Callaway was built I cried for a month. Then the quiet became normal. Now the quiet means something happened.

That means I came home.

Pretty quiet here on St. George's Island. I did hear a car go by about an hour ago...

Sirens again! Traffic stopped AGAIN. WTF

 

[ontheriver]

I wish every person that was hung up in 3 accidents today will THINK for one minute. But they won't.
It's not that hard to be aware and courteous. I sure do miss the old days in SMC.

Here too, although there is the occasional hum of a Tesla going to the exclusive, luxury townhouses at the end of the street. That's not really very annoying since the drivers who live in them rarely stop at the stop signs.

We have the occasional road harassing scofflaw in a Slingshot that terrorizes our island.

What a long day and not just the traffic. I left the garage on base at 3:50 to go to the chiro. What should take 10 minutes, tops, took 20+. I left there at 5 and decided to make a stop at sisters house because traffic was still FUBAR and she lives around the corner. I left her house at 545 and didn't get home until around 6. On a good day, we can get to each others homes in 7-10 minutes. I leave at 5:30am for work and only takes me 15 minutes. I'm tired. My neighbor usually gets home about 5:30 but didn't roll in until 6:05.

There was another accident in front of GMHS that further clogged up the roads.

I heard about that and possibly another one at Gate 2. People were calling the chiro office telling them they would either be late or to reschedule because they couldn't get there.

One of the tie straps break?

I don't know. I think the vehicle carrying the equipment hit the jersey wall. The equipment was stationary on the flatbed.

I crossed into SMC around 445pm. We sat for maybe 10 mins, then pretty much, business as usual.

Hey, we've been told for 40 years that you can't stop progress.
