Take it to the Bridge

" To embark on the journey towards your dreams requires bravery. To remain on that path requires courage. The bridge that merges the two is commitment ~ Dr Steve Maraboli

BRIDGE OF THE GODS
In 1926, the Bridge of the Gods spanning the Columbia River is completed. It crosses the river from a point near Stevenson in Skamania County, Washington, to Cascades Locks, Oregon. It is a steel cantilever, through-truss bridge and opens as a toll bridge.

At this location there was once a natural stone bridge called by the indigenous peoples of the area the Bridge of the Gods. In about 1450 an immense landslide off Table Mountain blocked the Columbia. This natural dam caused water to back up for at least a hundred miles, creating a vast lake. Gradually water eroded the dam away, leaving a bridge at the top. When this bridge eventually fell, it created the Cascades Rapids.
