Glena's Story
Life
after graduating as a teacher I moved to NWOntario - married, 6 kids, 11 grandkids, 6 great grandkids - 51 yrs ago I began freelance writing for Thunder Bay newspapers and about 13 years ago for the local weekly. I am totally involved in my small community, from a life member of Girl Guides, to United Church, to Crimestoppers and Community Policing, to TOPS and outdoors walking, hunting, canoeing, fishing and doing some camping. Not as much travelling as I would like.. My days never seem long enough.
If you are reading this in 2016 you may notice I live in Nipigon - the site of the failed cable...Expand for more
-stayed bridge that truly had Canada in a tizzy for a few hours when it was announced "Canada cut in 2 " - we don't expect to ever hear the REAL story behind the failed bolts. But - most agree that the 40 degree drop in temperature so fast was part of the reason. On January 30th an engineer - who claimed he designed the first ever cable stayed bridge in 1974 - says there were no counter weights under the bridge deck - so we had noticed this was being done last week! We always told people if you cross Canada by vehicle you have to come through Nipigon, but lots did not understand or really believe it.
