Today the George Washington Bridge turns 80 years old. It opened on it's namesake's 200th birthday. Most folks don't know what bridge I am talking about. In fact I would guess that most people would guess I was taking about the bridge in New York. I am not though, I am speaking of Aurora Bridge, which is actually named the George Washington Memorial Bridge. The bridge was the final link of US 99 that linked Canada with Mexico. Tonight a photo of the George Washington Memorial Bridge and the bridge it replaced.Wednesday, February 22, 2012
