Back to a mess

Arrived home very late last night and went straight into panic mode when I heard about the Minnesota bridge collapse. Spent half the night trying to locate 3 friends living in the Minneapolis St. Paul area. Thank god they’re all safe. Hard to believe the bridge I had taken numerous photos of is now at the bottom of the Mississippi.

This morning I’ve to wade through the mess left by the stock price sneeze in Wall Street. Doesn’t look like a very good homecoming this time.

My trip was tiring but got the job done. I’ll say a bit more about it a bit later in the day if I’m up to it.

Hi angel, thanks for the concern. The bridge pics are all over cnn.com. Hard to believe I can’t drive up and down on it anymore next time I go to the twin cities of Minneapolis-St Paul.

At first I thought it was a terrorist attack of some sort. Seems like it’s some structural defects, although no confirmation yet…

Yes I’m sure that thought crossed everybody’s mind when it happened. So sad.
