· Remember to drink plenty of water. Staying hydrated can be especially difficult in the colder months, but it’s an important piece of the health and wellness puzzle – so put down that extra cup of coffee and grab your water bottle instead.

Finally, keep in mind all the different activities that the change of seasons can bring. A little bit of fall moisture can revitalize sandy trails for hiking and mountain biking. Winter weather has even more options, from ice-skating to sledding to skiing. Building a snowman can be a good physical and stress-reduction workout too, burning around

Safety First! A Historic photo “spot the difference”

Safety regulations have come a long way since the construction of the original Interstate 5 Willamette River Bridge in Eugene-Springfield in 1961. The old bridge no longer stands; it was demolished in late 2009, and crews are hard at work building the replacement with the southbound structure reopening in August of this year. For more information on the I-5 Willamette River Bridge project, visit http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/HWY/REGION2/Pages/I-5WRB.aspx.

A lot has changed in construction practices since the original bridge was built. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety regulations were not signed into law until December 1970. ODOT has always made safety a top priority, but the construction sites of the 1960s looked a lot different than those of today. Can you spot the hazards that would be modern OSHA violations in this historic construction photo of the original Willamette River Bridge? Good luck!
