This morning the lovely TOYH and I went for a bike ride to take a look at the new 35W bridge. By the end of this weekend they will probably be finishing up the span across the river, which is utterly remarkable. Believe it or not, I took pictures and they are posted on my Picasa page. I had to fiddle around with some of the images because I'm not a good photographer. It' really hard to capture the immensity of the project and how strange it looks to see two spans of a bridge, unconnected, cantilevered out over the water.
This afternoon we're off to Kent and Ann's for the 4th. Usually we walk all of 4 blocks to Powderhorn Park and catch fireworks there after having cooked out with the neighbors. This year a bunch of neigbors are AWOL so we're going to spend the evening with family. I'm gonna miss the Powderhorn fireworks. It's not that the display is so spectacular, it's because it seems like the whole neighborhood, and this is a fairly diverse neighborhood, is gathered together for an hour or so and is enjoying something in common. It's pretty cool

It really is quite a sight to see. I usually check it out in conjunction with the Gopher football stadium and the Twins ballpark.
