Cool. I remember seeing that bridge when I came down to watch the hydros.

The Columbia has some size to it all the way up in your neck of the woods. What does your bridge link?

Boating with some friends yesterday who were camping on a beach on the Columbia near White Bluffs. Man, it was hot yesterday, and the cool water really felt great. The river is still high and fast compared to most years at this time. Alot of the really good sandy beaches are still underwater.
Sorry for the low quality cell phone pic.

The Ed Hendler Cable Bridge links East Pasco and East Kennewick. It was one of the first of it's kind to be built. It replaced the old skinny green bridge years ago. I remember going over that old bridge when I was a kid. The deck was steel grating you could see the river through. It was barely wide enough for two trucks to pass each other. There was actually a "save the old bridge" campagn after the new one opened. It ended up getting demolished anyway. A good thing IMO.
