I wonder if he's ever seen the little circular spots of crystals wringing around a hole in the snow over a frozen river - like the the ones I took photos of. It seems like he probably has.<br /><br />How interesting!ICQBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08634452093934367498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176800410822139543.post-34011082541892486302010-02-01T12:36:26.658-05:002010-02-01T12:36:26.658-05:00Hi Jo!

And yes, covered bridges last longer than uncovered ones - the road surface is wood. I guess it was a cost factor way back when. Wood was cheaper than stone and lasted quite a long time if covered from the elements.<br /><br />The bridge in the picture is closed off now, only foot traffic allowed at this point.ICQBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08634452093934367498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176800410822139543.post-47319398967130358392010-01-31T19:09:58.495-05:002010-01-31T19:09:58.495-05:00Your photos might have been ripped from the pages ...Your photos might have been ripped from the pages of a book on Andy Goldsworthy's art.ricki - sprig to twighttp://bannersbyricki.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176800410822139543.post-30732986879482167582010-01-31T18:34:14.388-05:002010-01-31T18:34:14.388-05:00Oh Linda,

To protect them from snowfalls? Or are they also in States without snow?<br />We don't see those over here.jonoreply@blogger.com
