Today is a long awaited day for me and my fellow
Hastings, Minnesota residents!
Since our town sits on the banks of the Mississippi River, we are home to a bridge that takes us across the "Mighty Mississip." So why is this a long awaited day? Hold on, I'll get there, but first a little history.
Last year I blogged about a milestone in the construction of Hastings' newest bridge. If you click here you can watch the video of our new bridge being moved into place.
Which brings us to today, a long awaited day for me and my fellow Hastings, Minnesota residents. After 3 years of driving through bridge construction, waiting in long lines, and contending with some drivers who were not always "Minnesota nice," our new, 4-lane bridge is open for business!
I feel blessed to live in a beautiful part of the country,
complete with a beautiful bridge!
