Hello from the Mackinac Bridge


THE MACKINAC BRIDGE
In Michigan -- The Water Wonderland
An early morning view from the bridge maintenance area. That's the Mackinac Bridge bus on the roadway at left. It maintains schedules between St. Ignace and Mackinac City. A lake freighter passes serenly (sic) eastward under the center span with scarcely a ripple. The green cable coming directly toward the camera doesn't look very big, but it is 24-1/2" in diameter and contains 12,580 wires.
