Didnt know if any of you had heard bout this so here it is.Terrible,could have been very tragic.One couple came close but noticed there was no road left.
Dang ! I have been across that bridge many times while hunting the LBl with friends that live in Cadiz and Murry.

It is going to have an impact on some of the small towns in the area, economically. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but it is going to make access to LBL hunting ground take a lot longer.
I usually stay in Cadiz. Wont be too big a problem for me,but the folks on the other side will have to drive a lot further to get there.

Isnt that the restauran ? Havent been there in a few years. Seems like theres a place called Baits and bullets too ????
Belew's is the drive up dairy bar. Good burgers and shakes, but I dont think they open until May. Not sure though.
Yep. Been there. Got a buddy that lives in Aurora.
I will miss that breakfast at Aurora during spring turkey season. Grand Rivers and Lake City have good breakfast also and I usually go to LBL thru the north end.
Wow thats nuts, glad nobody was injured.
Time to visit the Optomatrist, Ray Charles could see that ship would'nt clear that bridge. :TrainWreck1:
Yeah that will stink not getting to cut over to Belew's this season. I go into LBL from the south end but usually got lunch at Belew's. Hopefully they will get the bridge repaired quickly.
I bet someone's is deep sheet! :police:
Was the captain Italian? ;)
I go into LBL from the 68 East end. I will still drive the long way around for some of that good ol catfish at Willow Pond .
Sue and Charlies

Harder question - the owners name was?? Took my wife and I a long time to remember this one. I couldn't even find it on "google" but we eventually got it.
Don't know that one I only ate there a few times back in the 70's-80's.
