Gee thanks! I ran to check the list to check on “our” bridge! Now I’m even more jittery crossing that monster.

I’ve tried to walk out on to it and just can’t do it! It scares the cr@p out of me! LOL!

I had the same problem on the Golden Gate bridge a couple weekends ago! I already had acraphobia (fear of heights) but now I’ve learned there’s another stupid phobia about crossing bridges called what sounds like bfearaphobia. I don’t know how it’s spelled as I only heard it said on the radio.

What, I've climbed down to the catwalk on this bridge. We used to bring beer and go down to the concrete pylons that are three levels of stairs and drink under it.

You can't see it in the picture but the catwalk is in the middle below the two spans. You can see one of the pylons, just follow the green girders on the left side.

The good thing is we never got busted by the police. The more barriers they put up, the easier it was to access. I wonder if you can still get to the catwalk
