Dear Mary the snaps are grt....I have visited oregon once and fall in love with place....the natural beauty of the state is worth seeing...Thanks for sharing.....
These are so beautiful ~ but I had to go a googling to find out.... why? http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/1136/why-are-covered-bridges-covered Ah, I see!
I never relized Oregon had that many covered bridges. I lived in Washington State most of my life but am now living in the mid-west and I would like to do a trip finding covered bridges..now if I can convince my husband.:)Thanks for the beautiful pictures.
I have always been fascinated by covered bridges. They are so all-American and there is also something, I find, very mysterious and romantic about them. Gorgeous photographs.
I love these bridges! I can't recall seeing any covered bridges on my travels through British Columbia, but I think we could use a few ;) Very lovely pictures.
Mary, thanks for stopping by my blog and answering my questions about these bridges. For some reason I feel really drawn to them and fascinated. There seems to be something rather ethereal and lovely, but at the same time sad, about them. Can't really put into words exactly what it is that they evoke for me. But something about them also seems very familiar even though they are not - who knows? maybe some kind of "past life" thing :-) Whichever way you look at it they are lovely, and I'm glad that they are being protected. Sue
Aren't they pretty! I've always thought Oregon is such a beautiful state from every picture I've ever seen from there

I have never been to Oregon, but it sure has a lot of covered bridges,which I love. I did get to go to Iowa to see the bridges of Madison County. :)

Gorgeous, gorgeous photos. I remember traveling around Oregon one summer when I was young and just loving it.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite summer jaunts is down to Oregon - this summer I'll have to make a point of searching out some of those bridges.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I don't think I've ever even seen a covered bridge before!

ReplyDeleteGreat series of photos Mary. I always love the one on hwy 58 near Lowell. Thank you for sharing those with us.
ReplyDeleteThose almost look like the covered bridges we have out in Ashtabula County! We took a tour of them several years ago. Great pictures.
ReplyDeleteThose are so pretty! I love looking at bridges...I don't so much love being on bridges :)
