Was pretty awstuck with the images of that Bridge going down. Any one on here close to it or affected by it.
Sounds like a Bad deal.

My father in law was at the VA hospital which is very near there when it happened and this is what my sister in law wrote to us today:
"One of the gals that works with me leaves work around 5:30 daily, and crosses the bridge around 6:00 most nights. When she got out to the parking lot last night, she had a flat tire! I told her it was her guardian angel!"
My daughter has always had a fear of bridges...now she really does!!

Out thoughts and prayers got out to the victims and family out in MN....
1st thing I did was call my mom & dad and check to make sure everybody was save and well. They did not even hear about what happen and they lived up there! My dad said my mom put her foot down while she's in the house no news she sick of hearing all the bad news. Now they are glued to the TV and internet. And Calling family up there! My dad goes to the same VA hospital in that area! If he would of had appointment he would of been using that dam bridge! He has his monthly appointment new week!
