35W Bridge Collapse – 1 Year Later
It’s been one year since the 35W bridge gave way and it’s still unbelievable.
WCCO has a great retrospective on the survivors, the responders and others at the scene of the bridge collapse. Especially moving to us is the Coulter family and Paula, whom my wife use to work with. The doctors didn’t think she’d live, let alone walk and talk. It really goes to show you that the impossible is possible.
On Dec. 24th, 2008 the new 35W bridge will open.
To all the responders & rescue crews, the doctors & nurses, the thoughts & prayers and the construction workers bringing the bridge back to life, Thank You.
Minneapolis Aquatennial Fireworks Tonight
If you are in the Minneapolis area, tonight is the best fireworks show you may ever see! The annual Minneapolis Aquatennial fireworks shoot off the Hennepin Avenue bridge over the Mississippi and they are amazing.
With Target as the sponsor, you know it’s going to be good. They have 10,000 pounds of explosives and 45 miles of wire making it the largest of its kind west of the Mississippi!
Get there early though as parking and viewing spots fill up fast! I know we’ll be there!!
