I'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU A LITTLE ABOUT CRANES, BRIDGES, A RIG,
AND A BIT OF MY STICKER COLLECTION (COMING SOON).
I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING INTRESTING ALONG THE WAY,
I,M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR MORE PICTURES,
SO PLEASE SEND ME ANY PICTURES YOU HAVE (CONTACT US),
& I MIGHT PUBLISH SOME OF THEM ON MY PAGE.
FIRST, THE BRIDGE HERE IN TOWN,
CALLED THE TWIN SPAN,
TWINSPAN REPLACES AN OLDER BRIDGE THAT HAD BEEN IN USE
SINCE AROUND THE 1800'S. PARK & MAIN ST.
YOU CAN SEE THAT THE NEW BRIDGES
WERE BUILT ALONG SIDE OF THE OLDER BRIDGES,
WHICH WAS THEN REMOVED UPON JOB COMPLETION.
I'VE ALSO ADDED A FEW PICTURES OF THE NEW BRIDGE,
& OH YEA, SOME GUYS HANGING AROUND. :)
HA HA . . . SAY HI !
NEXT, I HAVE A LOOK AT A BRIDGE JOB IN THE CHARENTON AREA,
WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE PROGRESS OF THE BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION,
FROM BEGINNING TO JOB COMPLETION.

AND , A SHOT OF A CRANE ON THE TICKFAW RIVER.

AND, IF YOU EVERY HAPPEN TO VISIT "THE HAPPY HOUR",
OVER THERE ON BAYOU GARDENS, ASK FOR TODD. . .
HE GAVE ME THIS PICTURE OF THE "ENCHILADA".
"ENCHILADA" WHICH IS "GARDEN BANKS 128".
IN DEEP WATER, IT'S A PRODUCTION & DRILLING PLATFORM.
THIS WAS TAKEN IN THE SUMMER OF '99,
WHEN IT WAS APPROX. 150 MILES OUT IN THE GULF.
OWNED BY SHELL, IT EMPLOYES 50-70 PEOPLE TO KEEP WORKING.
HERE I'D LIKE TO SAY BYE- - FOR NOW,
BECAUSE I'M SAVING A LITTLE BIT OF SPACE
TO SHOW CASE SOME OF MY BEST STICKERS.
SO, COME BACK & VISIT SOON.
