I wonder why they built the bridge. The right-hand island apparently has nothing on it except that power pole or whatever it is. Do people really go there enough to make a bridge worth the expense?
ReplyDeleteFamily photo is of Joseph F. Smith, leader of the LDS church and taken in the early 1900s. It is a good example of the practice of polygamy that was accepted in the church at that time. Cameras had yet to be invented in the 1700s when the supposed farmer populated his own town, so to speak.
ReplyDeleteVery clever!
ReplyDeleteI'm almost sure that this small "international small bridge" is now destroyed or have a wall to stop the flow of anyone to get accros since 47Taco is there.
ReplyDeleteIn a border town here in Province of Québec, Stanstead, there is a famous library and theater that is on the US-Canada border. For one hundred year, nothing stopped the Canadians to enter the library door on the US side.
Today, that building was obliged to construct another door on the Canadian side because that 47 administration forbidden Canadians to go on the US side to get in the library.
After so many years of friendship and trust, 47 Taco so afraid of immigration made Canadian pay $500 000 to build that new door on the Canadian side.
I once lived in Stanstead in 1954-56 and none of this none sens was ever seen.
My mom used then to go shoping on the US side, crossing the border back and forth without any passport, just with her normal Canadian ID. This was then common for both sides of the border.
There is also one famous street along the border that the center line is the border. One side is in USA, the other in Canada.
Another famous house has the border line just in the middle of the house.
This administration is sadly mining our century friendship between our two countries and in many other ways too like his foolish tariffs policies.
