Rautasilta (Iron Bridge) in Oulu was completed in 1886 for the railway line leading to the port of Toppila. It is therefore a year older than the Eiffel Tower and carries a similar late-19th-century engineering charm. The bridge was assembled with riveted construction and spans 100 metres; at the time of its completion it had the longest bridge span in the Nordic countries.

Today, a popular pedestrian route crosses the bridge, offering fantastic views over the Oulujoki River and its estuary.

Going over a bridge can be helpful not to get wet feet or even stand for a new chapter in life - who knows?

The 14th novelette, "Mayhem," is almost done...

(In which a knife is plunged, a debt repaid [in part], an oracle's consulted, words are had, and swords are drawn.)

No. 14, “Mayhem.” The pedestrian walkway of a bridge reaches over the river before, paved with neat red rain-wet bricks; the deck of the roadway above; the railway caged behind riveted girders and grilles to the left. A lamp has been lit against the afternoon gloom, hanging over the walkway from a girder to the left, and another, identical lamp, further along the way. Across the river, against the colorless clouds, almost lost in the haze, two narrow towers of green glass can just be made out.

"Mayhem" continues, as blades are drawn—here we go—

One of my proposals for #pycon was picked! Very excited to visit Pittsburgh for the first time.

You know I’m going to do a tour of all the #steelbridge s😆…

A single seagull stands on top of a concrete column that forms part of a fence along the Willamette River with the Steel Bridge vertical lift bridge in background.

Igniting the darkness with trails of golden fire, bringing life to the steel bridge. 🌠⚡
