    Thanks for the FB message, Sota. You'll have seen my reply, I hope. I'd be interested in more photos (and that's a good looking bridge you've just put up!.) I had an interesting exchange with his daughter where I was able to send her a couple of letters I'd scanned that Phil sent to me in 1962. His wife and mother (still alive) were so pleased to see them. We also both had separate photographs taken at the Listerdale School May Day in 1961 which were taken during a Maypole dance within seconds of each other by the official photographer...

    CT/Sota - sorry to hear about the loss of your mutual acquaintance.

    The agency I work for are into building bridges (or contracting it out). Luckily for them, I'm not involved in that part of the business. Here's an impressive lump of concrete.

    Thanks, CAM...

    I'm finding the bridge projects on here increasingly ambitious...what's next!

    On my last (actually, only,) visit to Seattle, I found the road system, almost incomprehensible - especially traveling on the north-south highways. I think you're bridge is on an east-west freeway but I hope it helps simplify things!

    As those who viewed the garden thread we had a while back would have noticed I'm only capable of the pallet design. This one's a bit more elaborate

    That certainly is a better design and looks nice I’ll admit

    That one is in my garden and is over a 'dry' creek so doesn't have to survive being submerged. The other one is technically on land that belongs to me but is actually over a stream that channels storm water by the side of the road. I built it out of scrap wood for my grandson and the local kids to play on who walk by with their parents/grandparents. In winter it is sometimes covered completely after heavy rain.
