re: OB Engineers: Steel Beams to Make a Bridge

No stone around. We would have to haul rip rap from the barge port at Vicksburg. Also, the creek is subject to the MS River. We can't cross it when the river is at 42 feet or higher on the Vicksburg gage. Which, in the past was like maybe a few weeks a year. Some times we would go several years in a row without seeing a river that high. But recently it has been something like 22 of the last 36 months. Plus, when the water sits on it for that long, it drops crazy amounts of silt that must be dealt with. It has basically been unusable for most of the past three years.

I'm tired of fixing it. Tired of being subject to it. I'm ready to write one check and be done with it for good. Let it be my son's problem to fool with when he's my age.
