Pedicab Man

Pay attention, this may get confusing: this is a picture of the Arthur Ravenel Bridge which crosses over the Copper River and some people including me call the Cooper River Bridge. I took this picture from the Ashley River while rowing near the Battery [where the first shots of the Civil War were fired]. In between the Cooper river and the Ashley River is the Charleston Peninsula. Arthur, a SC politician, has a son Thomas who was Secretary of State for SC before being charged in a cocaine deal. The joke around here is the bridge was named for Arthur and the white lane lines on the bridge is named for his son. Now, my Alabama friends can feel better knowing they're not the only ones with public servants who moonlight as crooks.
