#5 Why the pick axe?

Ocean Blvd and A1A on the Palm Beach island are lined with multimillion$ estates. Many blocked from view by well-tended hedges, towering flower terraces and local saltwater tidal pool flora, like palm trees.

The narrow, 2 lane roadways are choked with landscaper trucks collecting debris from trimming palms etc. and grubbing fallen leaves and branches from drains.

Most of the work is done by hand or electric because in those narrow confines gas driven weed eaters or mowers 'make too much noise'.

Machete, pick axe, hoe and rakes are commonly used implements. The guy may have simply been a poorly papered groundskeeper.

When P.Trump is in town, the northbound lane from that bridge is generally blocked by 1. local police for detouring or passenger and trunk searches, then 2. sheriff's deputies with drug and bomb dogs and on the 3rd tier, 3. SS (?) checking paperwork. INS travels between the barricades upon request.

ALL traffic is rerouted or filtered. Many, many angry residents and golfers.

#6 Sorry, Flagler is one of the midpoint access bridges to the Palm Beach island so the southbound lane would lead to M-logo, some 4 miles south.

P.Trump was not in residence so roadblocks and searches would not have been in effect.

#7 ^Probably asked the cops how to get to Trump's residence.
