The bridge on 35W and along Washington Ave collasped into the Mississippi River in Minneapolis during rush hour this evening. I was getting ready to head out to school to pick up my grades and “Breaking News”. My first thought was terrorism, but then I thought, no, can’t be. Must be the hot weather. Last year some of the highways and cit roads buckled up due to the heat.
The first to call us was SD. Her hospital called her in. DB and I are both at home. Initially I thought it was the bridge on 35W over the Minnesota River, and I think that was what SD thought. Her BF called, too, and then a stream of calls from MIL, BIL, SIL and nephews if we are ok.
Both of us are doing fine. I hope Forrest is not around that area.
