A young American boy named Homan Walsh won the contest on the second day of the competition flying his kite from the Canadian shoreline. The string of his kite was fastened to a tree on the American shoreline and a light cord attached to it pulled across. Next came a heavier cord, then a rope and finally a wire cable composed of a number of strands of number ten wire which was the beginning of the new bridge.<br /><br />Thanks for the question. I love kites and i feel like Homan now. :)<br /><br />Source - http://www.niagarafrontier.com/bridges.htmlMawshan Lyngdohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00108280858303466104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15628310.post-83483955680813451562010-09-30T22:02:13.844-04:002010-09-30T22:02:13.844-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Mawshan Lyngdohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00108280858303466104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15628310.post-81135813799767994732010-09-30T13:32:24.786-04:002010-09-30T13:32:24.786-04:00Supposing two swallows carried it together?Supposing two swallows carried it together?Jeffnoreply@blogger.com
