Bridges . . .

Thanks to D. Chedwick Bryant and Mouse, there is a theme for Thursdays this summer, and maybe beyond. L and I went out the other day to photograph the bridges here (there are four). This is mostly her work; any wonky one is mine.




Sally, I've got some scaffolding for you, but no crane in this shot:




Frankly, this one below is my favorite, and of course L took it. She was trying to capture a low-flying heron, but he or she disappeared before she could take its picture.





Here's a little 360 degree spree:

I love it!!! I want to come visit and play in the fountain with the giant lions and turtles!! I am most impressed with the 360 degree vid, although I'm a tad dizzy.

i like the top bridge - it looks like the back of a stegosaurus (or a somethingorothersaurus)

and i like the stone piers with the boat just disappearing

and smiled at the sound of you laughing

:o)
