LIKE NEW: Bud Stahl adjusts the east end of the footbridge into place as the crane lowers the 53 feet bridge at Highland Park over the Kokomo Creek. The bridge, originally built about 1920, was removed and rebuilt by Stahl’s Welding. Wheel chair ramps will be then installed and wood slats put down across the bridge.

• Highland Park bridge restored

  For almost a century, there has been a foot bridge over Kokomo Creek in Highland Park. During the past few months, it has been refurbished. Stahl’s Welding removed the bridge last fall to make some long needed repairs to the structure. The bridge spans 53 feet.

• Erin's column: 05.11.12 >> Vacationing

  Drew and I made a decision early in our relationship that we wanted marriage to feel decidedly different than just dating. There’s dating. There’s even serious dating. And then there’s marriage, which to me, feels like it carries a gravity that should mean it’s written in capital letters: MARRIAGE. (That makes it sound like I’m shouting, but you know what I mean. It’s a big deal.)
