covered bridges - part 2

Okay - so this isn't a very Christmasy Vermont post,
but I suspect that before winter is through up here, you'll be tired of all my snowy scenes.
Anyway-
you may remember that last month we went out on a quest for covered bridges.
This one (the Cornish-Windsor Bridge) is on the Vermont - New Hampshire state border.
Until a few years ago, it was the longest covered bridge in the U.S.


It spans the Connecticut River (technically in New Hampshire)


And - although the longest covered bridge is now in Ohio,
I'm still giving this one points for "quaint".





I will probably be taking a short break from posting, although I'll continue to read yours.
I'm wishing you all a very happy and safe holiday season!


Thanks for dropping in!
