Abutments!!

Okay, abutments are not that exciting.  However, they are very important to the start of any bridge.  These are for the highway bridge across the Rock River just west of Franklin Grove.  I built them "to fit" out of scrap pieces of styrene.  After painting them a concrete color, I'll be ready to fit the I beams to determine the exact height needed for the two piers that will go in the river.
