Ya my Aunt, NOT ANT but AUNT, Lives in Wakefield RI. Shes an associate dean at Brown. I love that Area. Smallest of the 48, but still great.

I moved down south when i was 16 (to ark) then Texas when i was 18 and i graduated in 2010, and moved back to Ark...hopefully be coming back to texas soon as arkansas sucks. But other then missing fenway, the garden and gillette...i dont miss a whole lot about new england anymore haha.

You live in the South so it's pronounced "ant"

Haha, I never understood how people can gripe at me being lazy with my R's in words when everyone here forgets that there is a U in aunt. Too funny. Wakefield's a really nice place, all of southern RI is beautiful, and the untouched areas of the west and north are great too. The over developed areas like Central Falls....ick haha. I missed a lot about New England when I was gone last year, but it was my first year away from home so that's understandable. I think I missed trees the most. But at this point, I am counting down the days until my return to freedom...3 weeks from tuesday (:

Back on topic, did they only hang one side, or were both spans installed last night?

I was wondering the same thing.

Just one side. (North bound)

Cool cool, anyone have any idea when they other side is going up?

They only set the large center span, but it covers the north and southbound lanes of I35. They have yet to place the spans on each side that will cross over the service roads an attach to the concrete ramps.

For reference look back at the pictures. The One Way sign is on the service road adjacent to Apogee.

You live in the South so it's pronounced "ant"

And others in the south pronounce it "ain't".

Some will also pronounce the insect spelled a-n-t as an "ain't".

"Ain't" serves many purposes down here!

Only the middle span yesterday, but apparently the 2 side spans went up last night, as there is now a complete span across I35E.

The bridge turns 90 degrees to the east before hitting ground on the stadium side. Traffic will not be in a direct line with the alumni pavilion, just FYI.

If anyone has pics of the completed span of the bridge that would be really cool.

Thanks for posting. Very cool video, and I love the part where the sprinklers come on.

Sure, if you don't mind me having direct contact with the general public, as a representative of the Alumni Association.........

Why would I even think about that worry? Seems to me that you would be an absolute professional and positive influence. You, I do not believe, would ever do anything that would reflect badly on either yourself or any part of UNT. There are lots of volunteer opportunities and I welcome your participation.

With a big build-up like that I have a feeling that by about midway through the day I'll be singing this song.........
