Footage of the Mackinac Bridge Being Constructed

Here's some really neat footage of the Mackinac Bridge construction in 1956. It was filmed on 8mm and now on the internet for the world to see. How cool.

Today I came across one of those "pay dirt" 8mm reels from eBay. I think my home state folks will recognize this. I took the liberty of adding a little music for effect.

The first time I visited Michigan my wife told me there are two kinds of Michiganders, Yoopers and Trolls (those that live above and under the bridge). I was a bit confused but went with it.

I guess I still am to be honest. I really need to make a roadtrip to the UP.
