Yesterday on August 1 we canoed under it again (they haven't started the construction effort to fix it yet) so it looks equally bad. As far as I can tell no other bridges collapsed yesterday.

- Last year on August 1 we were canoeing down the Annisquam River in Gloucester and I looked up at the A Piatt Andrews bridge (Rte 128) and noticed what bad shape was in. Several hours later later when looking at the internet I noticed that the Minneapolis I35W bridge had collapsed killiung and injuring many people.

rsc By the way, in case anyone was wondering, it was complete coincidence that we canoed under the bridge on August 1 two years in a row.
jss1113 Ah, but now it's a tradition!
auntieruth I think it's more like a conspiracy.
rsc A tradition that will depend entirely on the weather and our schedules on future August 1sts.
