During the 1991 and 1992 they carried out several small jobs and were joined by another friend Mike Etue in 1993. The boys arranged with Jerry Murry, and old-time retired bridge builder from Dublin, to act as their advisor and under his watchful eye built the bridge pictured above this past summer. The bridge is located at Lots 39 and 40 Concession 1 in East Wawanosh Township just Northwest of Blyth.
