Since we live near Pittsburgh that is a little difficult to do. Her response, when she has to go over a bridge, is to lay on the floor of the vehicle with her eyes tightly closed. Needless to say, she isn't driving during those times :>) We have a friend who is so afraid of bridges of any type that she will go miles out of her way to keep from going over a bridge.

I have to teach bridges. I always start with The Tacoma NArrows Bridge. It is fascinating. The bridge swayed and collapsed and the only casualty was dog. Hi, I am a newsletter receiver.

It's of the Mackinac Bridge when it's lit up at night. I've been there and i have to say its amazingly beautiful. Some facts: its the third longest suspension bridge in the world. It opened to traffic on November 1st, 1957. It is 5 miles long. There are 1,016,600 steel bolts used. It employed 3,500 men at the bridge site to take part in the making. Now thats a lot of men and a lot of jobs! I posted the picture in my blog along with my post (+3): http://jessurrender.blogspot.com/2009/12/bridges.html thanks!
