I haven't heard any more on this topic. Is the Water Lily bridge still scheduled to be placed into position tomorrow (August 26)?

Yes, weather and equipment permitting. Backup dates are Thursday and Friday night.

There will be two live streams. One by The Villages, the other by Goldwingnut on YouTube.

Still listed here: Florida's Turnpike – Florida's Turnpike under traffic updates Central & West

Look for a link to my live stream of the bridge move tomorrow afternoon.
If I end up not streaming, then look for the video of me being tasered by SCS or WWPD if they try to shut me down and arrest me, and for the gofundme page going up to help me cover the bail.
Not going to be doing anything illegal, but the powers that be don't always like what I show and have long arms, deep pockets, and friends in many places.

Mr. Goldwingnut I wouldn't watch it unless it was done by you, You've done so much for us I think it's the least I could do. Loyalty is still a good thing even if it's not fashionable nowadays.

If you need Vito & Rocco they are available! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Watching it live now. Unfortunately, the guys doing the YouTube commentary, seem to have lost interest. Once it got difficult, they stopped talking. Maybe afraid they would say something unfortunate. The abutments were clearly just a bit to high for the jacks. They had to lay boards down on the road, to get extra height. The video director obviously had no idea what to focus on. Lowering it down onto the bolts, took a long time. Very carefully done.
I noticed that the safety harness for the guys sat on the abutments, was actually attached to the bridge. So if they did fall off, they would be hanging under the bridge. All done with only inches to spare.

Nice to see, but the TV production was weak. Good use of drones, through.
