The Bridge

On Thursday, July 17, we found this apparently abandoned sign on the bike bridge over Hiawatha Avenue. The staff at The Bridge knew all but one word of the translation, roughly: “Do you want to [something] with me?” But we had to go online to translate the verb “casar” — which means, we discovered, “to marry.”
