I used to hang out here


Related topics: ,

My company recently started work on a new highway project on James Island, which is where I grew up.

The project is located at the "triangle" at Folly Road and Maybank Highway, including the James Island side approach to the Wappoo Creek drawbridge. When done, the modified intersection will help improve traffic flow and the old Folly Road, used as a shortcut between Maybank and Folly, will have traffic signals to improve safety.

I was down there the other day and in a moment of nostalgia, took some pictures of the underside of the bridge, which used to be one of my hangout spots back in my high school days. Obviously, others have continued the tradition, with lots of spray paint, mixed with a modest amount of booze.

I won't say what I was up to, and we'll leave it at that.

I'm wondering if one would find the faded message "F*** Earl Capps" down there. If not, I'm sure some readers of the Blogland will gladly repaint it.

    Yep.

    What I'd like to know is what you were doing down there?

    That was during my brief "Reino works both ends of the 6th District" back in 2005, when I was slaving it at Kia Country...I had a blind date there - ot at least I wish I was blind.

    Mike had a date in 2005?

    Maybe he did. Lucky guy. You know us bloggers don't have lives, live in our mother's basements and talk in a strange stream of techgibberish.

    Yes, Mike had a date or two back in 2005, but no - Mike was not under the bridge....

    Let's change the subject - Vinegar or Mustard-based BBQ ??

    If I had a sister working a whore house and brother stuck in Greeleyville, I would help my brother first.
