In my back yard, John. In Maryland. Though I only have the main part of Virginia City included. Also, this bridge is “back stage” and not prototypical.

John,
I know where he lives but it’s still just a bit too far for me to just drive down there and throw a flaming bag of dog crap near it once it’s installed.

I will have to consult with Mr Marconi first.
It’s actually not a bad idea. If your temporary bridge still fits, you could bring it in before leaves get bad and put it back in early spring.

Starting to oil it. 3:1 (mainly used) motor oil to denatured alcohol for penetration. Got the used oil from the local gas station, no prob.

Hmmmmm
You don’t have a 5 gallon bucket from your oil changes 
2 Questions:
- Are you sure you can get it out the door?
- Did you test it by sitting on it?
…and when does Linda get her craft room back?
I stood on my trestle when I built mine…
Now I’m afraid to ask how Lou tested his Lou’s Lou 
- Yep (fingers crossed)
- Nah, it just would prematurely shatter. I’ll let mother nature and the massive deer population handle that side of the project.
She has so much yarn & craft space opportunity, which has steadily grown with each kid moving out.
Yeah, but when the Chesapeake Bay Drainage Authority finds out about your oil soaked trestle runoff you are going to jail anyway so the point is mute!

All I have to do is say, “My local gas station mechanic is an important guy in town, and he said it was fine, and that the EPA could pluck themselves” (sounded something like that, not quite sure). And if that doesn’t work, I’ll pull out the big guns and say “But Mr. Marconi said to do it this way.” Issue gone.
You’d do anything for a cellmate wouldn’t you
