Bridges Over the Columbia: I 5 and I 205

The mighty Columbia River separates Portland, Oregon, from Vancouver, Washington.  Two bridges connect the two cities.  The Interstate 5 Bridge was built in 1917, and enlarged in 1958.  The Interstate 205 Bridge (Glen L. Jackson Bridge) was built in 1977.

Since we live in the Orchards area of northeast Vancouver, Washington, we have travelled both of these bridges hundreds of times.
