The 10pm thread (archived)
The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread..... http://www.timeanddate.com/worldcloc...om.html?sort=2 see for yourself, it is ten o'clock somewhere.

Sutherland State Aid Bridge
County Road over the North Platte River 4.2 Miles North of Sutherland Lincoln County, Nebraska Total Length: 795 ft. Roadway Width: 16 ft. 14-Span, Concrete Filled Spandrel Arch C005661710 BUILT: 1914-15 by the Lincoln Construction Company By 1912 the existing timber pile bridge over the North Platte River north of Sutherland had deteriorated beyond repair. Citizens in Birdwood Precinct where the bridge lay voted a bond issue in April, and the county for its part secured assistance from the state aid bridge fund. Early in 1914 the Nebraska State Engineer produced six alternate designs for a multiple-span concrete structure here. The designs delineated fourteen 50-foot concrete arches or 23 33-foot concrete girders, with a variety of substructures and either 16-foot roadways or 12-foot roadways with a turnout at the bridge's center. After soliciting bids in April for the Birdwood Bridge (so named for the precinct), Lincoln County awarded the contract to the Lincoln Construction Company for the arches on wood pile foundations. The Lincoln-based firm began soon thereafter, assembling a sizable crew at the site. Work progressed throughout the remainder of 1914 and into the following year. At the end of December, 1915, the immense structure, by now called the Sutherland State Aid Bridge, was completed. Total cost: $36,345. The Sutherland Bridge has carried traffic since, in unaltered condition. The Sutherland State Aid Bridge is historically significant as a regionally important crossing of the North Platte River along the state's heavily settled Platte River corridor. This remarkable structure is technologically significant as the best example in Nebraska of concrete arch construction. Of the 17 multiple-span concrete arch bridges built under the state aid program in the 1910s and 1920s, all but the Sutherland Bridge have been destroyed or substantially altered, leaving this structure as the sole intact example of this important construction trend. The Missouri River bridges aside, the Sutherland State Aid Bridge is the most important vehicular span in Nebraska. |

City Museum was kind of a headache though. Constantly trying to keep track of three kids in that place is really taxing. Don't get me wrong, it is a very cool place but was more than I really needed to take on during our last day of the vacation.

I bet, I have two, ten and eight, last time we went though the youngest didn't want to leave my side, so I really only had to pay attention to one, next time I have to dress more appropriately and get into the mix better, no flipflops for sure. |
