The bridge collapse in Baltimore, which took the lives of ten people, has brought me back to the morning of April 5, 1987, when the heavily traveled Thruway bridge collapsed into the flooded and raging Schoharie Creek. I was almost on that bridge that day.
Adrian and Kristi Koppenhafer were on their way to Troy's Samaritan Hospital to have their second child on Saturday. They thought they could make it to the hospital, their new daughter didn't want to wait.
