There's perspiration involved in ...d-Thank you. There's perspiration involved in every possible aspect of my life these days, not even taking a leisurely picture can be easy. I'll put pictures of the bridge itself up on Monday. <br /><br />CG-I can, but there's a lot of snap-crackle-poppin' going on...<br /><br />DJ-The bridge made the front page news in both papers. I haven't read up on it myself yet but have heard enough snippets of random conversations to know that repairs are needed and that work is likely gonna cause some major delays getting on and off the island.<br /><br />Thomas - We pronounce it creek. <br /><br />But speaking of regional differences, most people who aren't from around here are astonished at what we call a creek, saying, "That's not a creek, it's a river!" It's all relative. We have a lot of water around here. What you all call crick I would probably call a brook or a stream, I am guessing. <br /><br />Happy Saturday.Chesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-90267280424029989452011-10-21T23:39:16.935-04:002011-10-21T23:39:16.935-04:00How is creek pronounced in VA ?
