Nice pics of those bridges David.
Those are really impressive structures for the times and terrain.
Built in the thirties I believe, and still there doing their job.

Good design also often is nice to look at too.

Cheers Richard

Helped my son move back into CPSLO then we did a little road trip up Hwy 1 - about as left as you can get on the Left Coast.
Spectacular beauty abounds:

Wow...great photos, David. That's just an amazing trip you took there.

I've got to get me one of those tee shirts as well...

I'm sorry to say I did not. It was not a DIY, and these trees were downed while I was away in Maine this past weekend.

I was in Maine this weekend as well. I didn't lose any trees while I was gone though.

Are you sure? Did you check all your trees?

Mine were very big so that's how I noticed mine were missing.
