American know how

 It’s gone.  Remember when we could put people on the moon?  Remember when we had the can-do spirit?  

In May a barge damaged the I-40 bridge across the Mississippi at Memphis.  Here we are, almost in August, and that bridge is not fixed.  I read that China was able to bridge a large river in a weekend.  

We were in an eight-mile line to get across the remaining bridge.  Once we got to the Arkansas side, there was another eight to ten-mile line of cars and trucks to get into Tennessee.  Ridiculous.

By the way, we aren’t coming home that way.
