HotRod you may already know about this site since you are a local, but I'll post it anyway.  This is where I have been keeping track of the progress of construction (as well as the photos that HotRod posts).

Our dams are like sidewalk curbs compared to the Hoover dam. At least Oss' little
dam has some architectural flavor...



We do have occasion to build stuff though:



The two old bridges are gone now, the new one is fun to ride the Valkyrie over  cooldude

The oldest bridge (the one on the right) was finished in 1929. When I was a young dude, it was exciting to
drive the 1970 galaxie over the old bridge at night... plenty of room for a couple of jalopies to chug past
one another going opposite directions, not so much room for cars (and trucks Shocked) going at 1980 speeds...

I have ridden across all 3 Cooper River bridges. I liked the old ones.
