Takedown!
Crews removed about a dozen of the old pole lights on the Veterans Memorial Bridge this afternoon. According to one of the workers at the scene, a new light will be installed wherever an old one has been removed.

What's up at Laurel Hill?
Several brass vases are missing at Laurel Hill Cemetery. Is it still due to last month's debacle or are they being stolen by persons unknown?
What I saw recently
Some pics from around town over the last few days . . .
Recent additions at the Catholic War Vets
An old-timey sleigh of some sort at Toll Booth
Several engines linked
Skateboarder at River Park.
Maybe he didn't see the sign.
Oh, there it is - right in front of him.
Can anyone ID this type of plane?
It flew low over the area on Friday afternoon.
It's obviously a kind of cargo transport.
Possibly, a C-130 something or other?
Lots o' nuts 'round here
Well, what the hell?
Part of a broken banister or headboard, left lying there.
Where did it come from?
Why walk on the sidewalk when you have that whole street right there?
Recent heavy rains have lifted the docks at River Park.
The sign says: ADA ACCESSIBLE PIER. Somehow, I don't think so.
It also says: NO SWIMMING. Well, how else are you supposed to get out there?
Another dock
A different view of the same
Out for a swim
Working at cross purposes?
Each has a priority: getting the story - and getting the selfie.
An old-style street lamp outside Andy's Market.
There's a "C" on the base, presumably for "Columbia."
All lit up
Of the new bridge lights that have been installed, all are now in working order. I took these shots on Saturday morning just before sunrise. (A software glitch created the effect in the last photograph in this series.)
