March 1977



ON THIS DAY IN 1977: The Francis Scott Key Bridge (I-695) opened to traffic as the final link in I-695 (the Baltimore Beltway). Shown here during its construction period that began in 1972, the 1.6 mile Key Bridge crosses over the Patapsco River. Scholars believe the span crosses within 100 yards of the site where Francis Scott Key witnessed the bombardment of Fort McHenry on the evening of Sept. 12, 1814. That battle inspired Key to write the words of the Star Spangled Banner.

That was on ebay a while ago.

There was also a red one around the same time.
 
It's a long held tradition in Texas to take photos of your kids surrounded by Bluebonnets, Indian Paint Brushes and other wild flowers along the roadside in the spring. My wife pouted until I finally pulled over to let her take photos of herself. I refused to get out and take the photos, thinking it a little too childish for a big guy like me.

So, a little later, after having endured her shaming me for being too uptight and not letting my inner child express himself, I decided to pull over and have my own go at the wild flowers. I chose a thistle bush.
