This beautiful scene is across the street from where I work. This bridge connects to an island where people live (only a few people, maybe 9 families). Back in my "fitness nut" days (when I walked 4 miles every day) I walked by this bridge almost daily.
About a year ago, I stopped walking and stopped going to the gym to use the weight machines (just got burned out, I guess). Now I miss seeing this beautiful sight.
Is the bridge a covered one like in 'Bridges of Madison County'? (Loved the book but have never seen the movie.) It looks like a lovely area for a daily walk. Do you think you will take it up again?
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a covered bridge. I always think of 'Bridges of Madison' when I walk near it! I loved that book and the movie.
ReplyDeleteHere we are, sitting at our computers again on opposite sides of the world. It's 1.30am (Thursday) and I can't sleep - actually slept too long in the armchair before going to bed! So I got up to make a hot drink, but in reality it was to surf the blogs. But now the house is starting to make noises as the night gets colder so I might have to sneak back to bed.
ReplyDeleteZoey, that is gorgeous. I have a pattern that I can paint someday with a covered bridge in it....So neat.

I loved that book and movie. My husband hated it. He thought she was terrible for fooling around with Clint.(That is putting it mildly).He just didn't get it.
ReplyDeleteWow what a great shot of the bridge and of course like everyone else the first thing in my mind was The Bridges of Madison County.
ReplyDeleteOhmigod, you're lucky. Just looking at hte photo I thikn my blood pressure dropped a bit.
ReplyDeleteHow scenic! And what a nice place to paint or sketch.
ReplyDeleteWe have a few covered bridges in Lancaster County too. Very neat.
