Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge




I mentioned the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge in the 'Anniversary Weekend' post, so here are a few photos. It's an impressive structure that spans more than 2,200 feet and connects Council Bluffs with Omaha.

Recently city leaders hired a surveyor to find out exactly where the border between Iowa and Nebraska was and they had someone sand blast the line with 'Iowa' on one side and 'Nebraska' on the other. (Yes, that's Natalie giving a thumbs up to Iowa.)

After seeing the bridge in the newspaper it helped make up our mind to continue our anniversary roadtrip west to Council Bluffs. We're glad we did because the bridge was a cool stop and we had a nice dinner at the Old Mattress Factory.
