The Hines Bridge

I can understand why people might thing three-plus years is a long time to fix the bridge. But I can offer one blogger's assurances that the closure of the bridge won't keep me from Flatbread's or the Barking Dog.

I'll take Routes 95 or 1. It ain't no big deal.

OTOH, it's amazing that while it is taking our state the better part of 2 years to replace a bridge over a tidal creek on 1A, and they plan to take almost 4 years to fix the Hines bridge, Minnesota replaced the interstate highway bridge over the Mississippi that fell down in just over 1 year.

Well...yeah.

I suspect they had more resources to put on the project.

But I'm not an engineer.

Though I've always wanted to pretend that I'm an architect.

The last time the bridge was closed, 2000/2001 ( I think) , the area became a great place to watch eagles.

Tom, I thought you always wanted to pretend to be a marine biologist.
