Had the chance to discuss the Steel Bridge Songfest taking place on June 11-14 in beautiful Door County WI USA with one of the many involved in the project, pat mAcdonald. Four days of music and discovery based around the well-being of an historic steel bridge which for many stands for so much more than mere traffic distribution.
