Bossman rented 2 truckable tugs, a trackhoe, and a big payloader. Got the one at the main gate bridge of NASP off about 2000. Up early to bring it to the port. Bayou grande channel is gonna be fun

Woo! I am beat and we will be at it for weeks. Got the one at garcon point bridge this morning. Tried to pull one out from under 3 mile bridge, no bueno. Went out by the lighthouse and yanked one off that was up by a campground bungalo at NAS. Grabbing 17th ave boat ramp barge at 0800 if anyone wants to see some crazy stuff

I'm guessing that one on the milton side of I10 is gonna have to be cut up? I don't see how that one can be pulled off the hill.

150×54. With luck, skill, and the grace of God we didnt wipe out any markers. If anyone knows the rockpile on the right side entering the dogleg, i got drug across it trying to push the bow around. We call that a nauger. Thats when your bunghole puckers up and sucks up the naugahide from your seat
