St Augustine Bridge of Lions Opens

The St Augustine Bridge of Lions

St Augustine Bridge of Lions

This is a computer produced image of the new bridge. The final road work and landscaping is being completed now. First opened in 1927 the original bridge cost one million dollars. The new 82 million dollar bridge is a replica of the original. This includes duplicating the original lights. Here is a photo of the original.

Old Bridge of Lions

In order to facilitate the construction a temporary bridge was built alongside the old bridge. This bridge is now being dis-assembled and will be utilized on another project up north. It will be several months until everything is completed.

Government by the People, with Social Media its Becoming a Reality

The Internet and Social Media will Allow the People To Govern

The Internet is facilitating the ability of "We The People" to control our government. Via social media people from all across the country are able to make their wishes known. The Obama campaign made use of the Internet to capture votes and was an important contributor to President Obama's election. Now we are starting to use this media to bring about changes in our government.

Tea and coffee parties are the start. We can reach out as individuals and build groups. Groups will become crowds and crowds will become powerful forces to create change in Washington DC.

Do you know that if you serve one term in Congress you are paid your congressional salary for the rest of your life? Did you know that our Congressmen and Senators have the best health insurance plan available paid for by our taxes?

Obama ran on a platform of change. But, I don't think he thought it would be the change that is about to happen. It is time for us to use our votes to tell OUR government what we want.

Political tea party
