The Twins game has now started. I wondered if it would be called off or delayed.

Glenn Taylor - the owner of the Timbewolves was supposed to have a presser for the recent trade. Cancelled by Taylor. He broke down because his daughter was involved in the collapse. He thinks she’s okay.

I think we will find that lives were spared because it appears that the bridge “pancaked” into the river. I know in ‘67 with the Silver Bridge the spans fell vertically into the river. Virtually all the cars went into the river.

I’m actually shaking as I watch the video. This brings back so many emotions from the ‘67 collapse. I was 16. There was a real pall over our town (Point Pleasant)for months. It was December and Christmas was difficult that year.
