Hi gang,
I have been watching as well, it is aweful. We have a friend that works in Minniapolis and he says it is the busiest bridge, always packed with cars. He said that the pictures just don't do it justice as to it's size and devistation and that is is a main artery into the city. We were glad to hear he was doing fine as well were his family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those involved in this unbelievable tragedy.
P.S. I also heard that on a bridge evaluation scale from 0 to 120, the saefty of the structure was rated at 50! Being it's a federal highway, perhaps they should have shifted some funds that way to bring it up to a better rating. Just a thought!
