    Ok Bec and Jo both just checked in, they're fine.

    Bec is telling me she drove over the bridge about a half hour before the collapse, but she's fine, although she is stuck in the huge traffic mess over there.

    Hey No Apologies,

    Thanks for the update. I'm amazed that the fatality number is low for now. When I first saw the photos I thought there would be dozens and dozens dead given the bridge fell during rush hour. Glad to hear you people are okay.

    Former Minnesotan here,

    So far, all my family is accounted for. My Dad called and let me know what had happened.

    Glad to see all you Minnesota apostates are safe and sound.

    thanks for the concern guys. i'm fine, but a little freaked out about being on the bridge not long before it happened. thank you for your concern. it's definitely freaky and makes you realize that your life can change in an instant.

    I saw glued to the tv set last night, I even prayed last night! and for me that is a really big deal. This is horrible. My thoughts are with the families of victims.

    Yes - I am checking in - and A-ok, I take 94 to and from work -- not 35...what a horrible mess! Luckily for me everyone I know is ok - but it is scary since everyone either drives it themselves regularly or knows people who do. Very scary stuff - I can't even imagine what it might have been like.

    There are still so many people missing -- it's very sad indeed.
