The Minnesota Bridge
This weekend my friends and family all happened to be out of town so I had some time by myself. So off I went around Lino Lakes with the companionship of my dog and my 35mm camera. I really like these three pics. I feel like I am always looking to go to a far away foreign land to find beauty when it is right here at home. I love Minnesota- especially the people.
This last week my mom and I were eating at Axel's Bonfire when we saw on the news a video of the 35W bridge collapsing. It was 5 minutes after it had happened so there weren't any emergency professionals to the scene yet. My heart sunk when I realized what bridge it was. Every where I looked people were on their phones, checking on loved ones.
The Minnesota people have really impressed me with the love they have shown for their fellow man during this tragic time. It seems that so many people went down on their own to give food and money donations. There were also many many many people who rushed to the scene immediately and tried to help while at the same time risking their own safety. I love Minnesotans.
