Another freedom lost

That’s sorta a big deal if you travel from down here. But its not like anyone can afford to drive anywhere anyway. I knew I would get oppressed somehow today.

Not like it’s a big deal, I’d like to see all the bridges worked on simultaneously for a couple of years between here and the east side of the state.

Thanks for the info.

"begin July 11 and will remain closed until mid-October" the official translation for this is do not count on using this bridge until after New Year.
