<><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><> Fred, I'm sorry to learn of this event. The paper didn't put a name to the bridge but I'm thinking they're talking about the Dewey Bridge. Steve and I stopped there for a quick break when on De Tour in 2006. That was quite the engineering accomplishment. As I recall, in the early 1900s it was also the only way across the river for about 25 miles in either direction.

Fred, Believe I crossed that bridge once upon a time looking for some Anasazi (i think) rock paintings.... Could be wrong, but that is what the few brain cells I have left are telling me. It is a sad day. Regards, albatross

I will miss that bridge. It made an excellent rest stop during four or five trips through Moab. I'm glad I got to see it while it lasted. Steve

Anyone wanting to see the flaming results of turning loose your 7 yr old with matches, I can email you some pix. I hope the parents have a big fat home owners insurance policy, sounds like they are going to need it. Fred http://www.arrowheadmotorsports.com http://s1.zetaboards.com/arrowhead

Unfortunately, no insurance policy can replace a historical landmark. But it doesn't take a 7-year-old and matches to wreak havoc--two guys grinding irrigation pipe in a dry, grassy area last summer sparked a fire that torched about 250,000 acres of our backcounty. __Arden

sounds like they are going to need it.
I was hoping it was a bad April Fool's joke. I'm a day late and a dollar short again. Staying with family in CO and planning a trip to the Moab area. We were going to head down this weekend but there's supposed to be 10"-18" new snow between today and tomorrow. Are any of the camping areas near Moab dog friendly? The whole family of inlaws wants to go and that will include 4 dogs, 2 kids, and 7 "grown-ups". thanks, da Vermonster no matter what, me and my KLR will make it out to be blessed by Fred before I head back to my East Coast home.

Wow, I've never heard of hoses reversed from the factory, very interesting! I guess there's a first for everything. A very interesting flow diagram... Glad you got it oriented right.
