Re: BEHOLD! 80' Mast Under 65' Bridge

Wonder why they didn't choose to take down the mast and then reinstall it after getting to the other side of the bridges.

Re: BEHOLD! 80' Mast Under 65' Bridge

That why I live where the bridges go up and the masts stay vertical.

Re: BEHOLD! 80' Mast Under 65' Bridge
