OUR BRIDGES ARE BACK
Our bridges are back and traffic is once again flowing along the Coast. This tidal surge of traffic with its ebb and flow seems different now than before Katrina. In my mind’s eye I want to remember a more patient and leisurely approach to get from Ocean Springs to Bay St Louis and back, but I would have to go back to a time before Casino’s.
A time filled with The Sun and Sand, Buena Vista sunsets and the Broadwater Hotel. A time when Biloxi, a sleepy little fishing village, where you could witness the Sea and Sirloin walking hand and hand along the beach on their way to the Amusement Park. A time when you knew the doughnuts were fresh, just out of the oven, the strobe light blinking overhead.
A time when Closer to the Edge was not just a record album but also a hot little Night Club filled with twenty-five cent Pong machines and pool tables. A time when the vapors were not the stench from seafood factories or the piles oyster shells baking in the sun, but a mind set you got to, while dancing your nights away at a club with the same name.
I am glad our bridges are back and I am, to some degree, in line with the Butch Brown way of moving traffic. http://www.davidlynnblair.com
