That reminds me of what we used to call a Double Barrel Bridge or covered bridge here. Nice photo.

16 Ghosts on Bridge?

Our mighty Mississippi certainly gives us plenty of bridges to cross. This is one of the imposing structures that impress me. Great photo!

Janet said...

I wondered what bridge you would post. You have so many choices up there! Nice photo.

Gwen said...

Interesting bridge structure and materials.

Jilly said...

The colours on this bridge work so well together. Impressive structure.

That's one impressive bridge, Dusty! The perspective is so nice and that cloudy sky, so lovely. Great post!

That's a massive bridge. I wonder how many vehicles use it each day.

The colour of the stonework seems quite a remarkable shade of brown.

Ben Nakagawa said...

That's a big one! Very good detail.

Susan said...

Very nice. I was wondering which one you would choose.

Sally said...

The mighty Mississippi and great engineering combine so successfully.

Neva said...

You must have tons of bridges if everyone was wondering what one you would pick. This one is nice.

Nice bridge shot for theme day. I’ve enjoyed browsing through your recent posts, too. Thanks for visiting my blog.

I'm glad you liked my theme day post. I knew when the theme was bridges that I already had lots of photos and memories.

Hi Rob,
great BRIDGE, I like the colours too, looks like 'plastic' I don't mean that offensive bit as a compliment,

How can I take part of the monthly theme day?
