Building the Ravenel Bridge


After all the photos I took, I've tried to arrange them in some order based on various topics I found interesting.

And a reminder from T.S. Eliot (East Coker from the Four Quartets) 

Old men ought to be explorers
Here and there does not matter
We must be still and still moving
Into another intensity
For a further union, a deeper communion

A very high level conference: Oliver, Brian and David (who wants to be quoted as saying "We are building the best bridge in the world"). The question for the day: How to coordinate cable work with other work teams on the deck?
