The bridge was completed on 08-27-04 and we are now opened back up for visitors from all directions. Come back to town for a visit soon.

Here's a couple more photos to give everyone an idea of how the construction is coming along with the new bridge at the river park in Goldfield. Alan tells me they have it almost complete except for the walking bridge along the side. Not sure where the aerial photo came from but it gives you a good look at the entire span of the new bridge.

Happy Father's day alumni! I got a chance to play in a golf tournament today with 3 of my fellow class of 1984 alumni. Pictured from left to right below are: Tom Frakes, John Sorensen, Brett Trotter, and Larry Brott. We didn't win but it was great to see some of my classmates. The picture below represents almost 1/3 of our graduating class!

The Class of 1964 held their 40th year reunion this past weekend in Goldfield. They had all but one graduate in attendance. It was a very fun filled weekend.

If you compare these photos Alan just sent me to the ones in the last news update, you'll see we've been getting more than our fair share of rain here in Iowa....
