Many thanks to Spinboy for sending me the above greeting a couple of years ago - I cannot improve on it! B.Wind 02:25, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Florida State Road 836 and the 97th Avenue Overpass collapse
[edit]Just a little "heads up" as I had to revert your correction to the Florida State Road 836 article. The closest Hurricane Dennis came to Miami-Dade County was the Dry Tortugas roughly 250 miles away; it was Hurricane Katrina that toppled the under-construction overpass on August 25, 2005. It hit here as a Category One hurricane that had landfall at Golden Beach and angled southwestward. Having a direct hit from Wilma in October after a Rita near-miss in September did not help matters afterward. Keep on pluggin'! B.Wind 02:25, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
