Just giving you a hard time Janet, I am proud of you!!!!

Oh yeah forgot to say that Brenna is such a cutie, I GOT to hold her all the way home while Janet drove back across the bridge LOL

You guy's are funny, thank you for sharing your adventure I have a smile imagining the scenario.

Like Paula mentioned facing your fears.. isn't it wonderful.... Sounds like it was kodak moment... now girl continue to drive those bridges.... Proud of you!!!

Hurray Janet!!! I bet you are as proud as can be!

Baby Brenna is absolutely too much! What a beautiful little face, and tiny little body, and sweet little puppy breath....I better stop now, or I'll be driving over to your house to play with her! How many bridges would I have to cross?

Ha! Ha! Janet, my daughter can't drive over tall bridges either. She almost hyperventilates when she has to go on an elevated highway. I'm glad you made it over, and now you KNOW you can do it, so you'll be able to do it again!!!

I can't believe it - the puppy is just adorable. Gosh, she has the cutest face!!! We almost named one of our schnauzers Brenna - many years ago. If I remember correctly, it means raven maiden.

Thanks everyone! It was a nice little trip. Only took 4 hours down and 4 hours back of course. I'm so glad Lynne was able to go with me. I don't mind the driving as much if I have someone with me and Lynne makes everything fun.

I was happy to bring Brenna home, but a little sad to let Fancy go. Fancy is now living with another breeder in North Carolina. We just traded girls. Fancy just didn't fit in like I would have liked for her to. She didn't play much, didn't like toys and was just so different from my others. Fancy is doing great in her new home and they love her already. Everything is good.

I'm glad Fancy is happy with her new family!

Janet, I am usually not scared of driving over bridges with cars, but I have a story to share about the first time I ever rode my motorcycle. I was riding around in a parking lot with a couple of other people, and they decided to take me around the city, which I wasn't sure if I was comfortable with yet, but followed anyway. I was doing okay until they decided to make me follow them across the Victoria Bridge

This bridge is the oldest bridge in the city, built in 1907. A few years ago there were studies done on its safety, and I just happened to be working in the lab at the time. We received samples of concrete cores that were taken from the base of the bridge by divers, and I had to take pictures of the samples, and as soon as I saw them decided I was never driving on that bridge again! They were in bad shape. The bridge was closed to traffic but still open to pedestrians. I never heard of any extra work being done on it, but a year or two later it opened to traffic again! This bridge is SO skinny, cars pass within a foot of each other. The spaces on the sides are definitely wide enough to fit a motorcycle through if it happened to slide. I was praying so hard while I was riding across, and by the time it was done my whole body felt like rubber! I was so scared! And I haven't been back on it since!
