On a crisp, clear February morning 1921; at the tender age of 12 years and armed with just two bricks; Fante single-handedly built the Hoop Creek Stone Bridge, Colorado. It was a grace to behold and it's completion would herald a new dawn in construction. Fante was talked of in the papers and the jobs rolled in. Finding he had to hire more men, Fante sired a family with a beautiful blonde Amercian woman of good stock. He and his family became folk heroes of the new world and a lesson to all the work-shy wops and spics who refused to take what America offered.
