Bridges

So, Aaaa... I don't ever work on bridges. But, I still find them fascinating to look at. Which works out well for me living in at area with many, many bridges. I was in Wayne County (West Virginia), yesterday looking at a water line project and ran across this bridge. I think that these bridge supports are cool. I am not sure if the photo portrays it well. But, I enjoyed it. Sharing that picture from yesterday makes me think of my favorite bridge. The Tacoma Narrows Bridge. The first one, in 1940. That thing was cool, rocking, swaying and crashing into the water. Here is a sweet collection on photos from the construction, life and collapse of the bridge.

  1. I remember seeing a video of the Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse in physics class. Holy cow, that was crazy.
