That’s how it is up here in Venice at our jetty. It’s on both sides and it stays open just fine.

IT STARTED WHEN THEY PUT ONE WALL ON ONE SIDE OF THE PASS. THERE HAS TO BE A WALL PUT ON BOTH SIDES OF A PASS, THE SAME WAY IT IS DONE ALL OVER FLORIDA. I’VE SAID IT A HUNDRED TIMES, BUT THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS AND THE REST OF THESE MORONS WON’T LISTEN. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE CURRENT TO MOVE THE SAND PAST THE ENTRANCE OF THE PASS AND PILE UP PAST THE SECOND WALL. THE TIDE CHANGES WOULD ACCELERATE THE FLOW BETWEEN THE WALLS AND BLOW THE SAND IN FRONT OF THE PASS OUT. BUT, YOU CAN’T TELL THESE PEOPLE ANYTHING. THEY JUST WANT TO DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AND EXPECTING THE RESULTS TO BE DIFFERENT. HOW DUMB IS THAT.
