After hearing about Peter Fonda's death, I remembered someone telling me a long time ago that part of that movie was filmed on the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge. So I hit the internet to find the scene from the movie. What I found is much bigger and better than any scene from any movie. I found real-life video footage of the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge being built. After watching this, you will never drive over the Basin the same way again.

Slow moving traffic this Saturday morning on I-10.
