On Thursday, we started making the pads. The pads are at the end of the bridge where the roadbed connects, almost like a support system, so clearly the pads are extremely important. To make them, we had to dig holes and then fill them with concrete. Unfortunately, on Thursday, we ran out of concrete, so we had to stop there, but that didn't stop us for long. On Friday, a team of eight kids went out and continued making and pouring cement as the rest of us constucted the initial frame for the roadbed. In case you were wondering, the roadbed is what hangs from the towers and is what Mr. Bergen has to walk across once we finish construction.
