For the next 2 months...

I have to drive an extra 15 minutes to work now because the bridge I have to cross to get to work is now closed.  Why is it closed you asked?  The bridge inspector has discovered few weeks ago that part of the bridge is deteriorating.  If left unfixed, it would turn out really bad.  It was still drivable but no cars over 6000 pounds was allowed on the bridge.  Good for me since my car is under the limit.  Did they really stop cars to see if they were over the weight limit?  No.

Today is the time to shut down the bridge and repair it.  Well the shut down part.  Can't repair it because it raining.  So for the next 2 months, maybe longer or shorter depending on the weather, I will have to take the long way around town to get to work.  Which is an extra 15 minutes (20 minutes if there a lot of red lights).  I just don't get why they didn't find it in the first place when they were repairing the concrete pillars couple of years ago.

I don't mind the drive home because it actually quite peaceful.  The drive to work just seems longer then the drive home.  2 months better fly by.
