Friday Bonus
In last week's Friday Bonus I talked about one of my favorite bridges, a pedestrian-only drawbridge in Maine. That prompted Charlie Wallace to share one of the more unusual bridges he's seen. It's also a pedestrian bridge that opens for river traffic. What makes the Gateshead Millennium Bridge in the UK unique is how it opens. It tilts!
