The work on the bridge in Essex is coming along. Admittedly, I don’t know much about this project, but I have driven past it once every other week or so while construction has been underway. I’m sure everyone who drives past it more often will be happy to have it done. Personally, I miss seeing all the kids lined up jumping into the creek. It seemed like quite the rite of passage. I know that stopped a few years back….and I’m sure safety was an issue…but I loved seeing those kids enjoying simple summer fun.
