<p>Im not certain of the precise location yet but there is an old Truck Stop in the immediate area on one of the banks of the river. I may be thinking of another bridge elsewhere. I remember what a pain it was to cross that river there in that part of town with all the ramps.</p><p>The last time I was on the bridge it was doing ok, but that was years ago.</p><p>Apparently we are losing people with passing time, my prayers out to the lost and those who are affected.</p><p>Tomorrow's Commute is going to be a anvil breaker in that town.</p><p>I am totally curious as to why that big strong bridge failed. Me thinks someone didnt catch something in time or fix something right. These big bridges need people walking on them daily checking rivets, bolts, welds etc. All the time, checking.</p><p>I understand that the people worked hard by themselves to help each other. I say OORAH go Minnesota! That's the way to do it.</p>
