Cee posted another update from rehab, and it includes a few photos. Check it out and share some love.
I’m sharing a few bridges for Cee’s Which Way challenge because I think Cee likes bridges.
On the way home from the hockey game we crossed the Allegheny River of this bridge. Our favorite stop along the Windsor Locks CanalAccess to the Charter Oak Bridge is up those stairs.Roberto Clemente BridgeThis train is moving right along. At this point, I have to run to get in position for the canal bridge.We stopped for some photos of this bridge.Under Panther Hollow bridgeThe Dutchess, again. Under the Roberto Clemente bridge. From PNC Park.Multnomah Falls – Our hike to the top will take us over that bridge,These doors have closed off the far end of the covered bridge. Panther Hollow Bridge near the University of PittsburghThat’s the I-35 highway bridge and a lot of debris in the river.I have shared this stone arch bridge many times, but this is one time when I actually saw a train on it.The Sunshine Skyway bridge in Tampa, FLOnce up the hill to mid-span of the Verrazzano Bridge, we stopped for a pic.From the 2000, Five Boro Bike Tour. At this point, you had to commit to the Verrazzano, or return to Battery Park via the Brooklyn Bridge.
My little it of shameless self-promotion: The Evil You Choose is on sale until June 26th.
All five of my current books are now available in audio book form thanks to Amazon KDP’s Virtual Voice process. The voice is AI generated, but I can honestly say, it’s pretty darn good. The audio books are reasonably priced (all below $7 US) and, if you already own the Kindle version and want to add an audio version, you can do that for $1.99. There is a five-minute sample on the book page for each book. If you’re interested, click on any of the Dreamer’s Alliance book links below the image or on the link below for my latest book.
Our need to get from here to there has sure inspired some handsome connections. I love the image at night with the reflections in the Allegheny, but my very favorite is the Panther Hollow bridge through the trees. But then there’s the stone arches…if Cee loves bridges, this is the perfect get-well card!
I don’t doubt that! I’m glad to find you here because I just came in to announce to you THEY FOUND IT! Just now — four little birds splashing up a storm! Up to now, the only visitor was a dragonfly. The nearby lilac is a handy drying-off place.
That is an amazing bridge, GP. I was glad to find the fishing areas near the start (a little sad to see the fee), where you could park and take pictures.
Bridges are awesome structures that connect us to “the other side”. I can’t even imagine crossing a river in a covered wagon praying that the horses and me make it across safely.
I especially like covered bridges, so quaint and practical. Great shot of the Panther Hollow Bridge and of the Roberto Clemente Bridge with all the people walking across it.
My favorite, of course, is you and Faith on the Verrazano Bridge!
Sending good wishes to Cee that Rehab is the perfect bridge to her recovery.
Enjoy this glorious reprieve from the oppressive heat we’ve had. Our AC is off and windows are open! Hallelujah!
Cee’s Which Way challenge is looking for odd angles. There’s a set of stairs going up to the bridge from the river walk. I took the picture from the landing on the stairs.
You know I know some of those bridges (and have fondness for them). That covered bridge is awesome. I’d love to explore that… before spending time at the Falls, which is a lovely area. Thanks, Dan.
I knew you’ve been across some of those, Staci. Pittsburgh is such fertile ground for bridge photos. The Covered bridge is interesting, and since is hardly ever in use, there’s lots of time to explore the detail. The falls are near Cee, so it seemed appropriate. I hope you have a great week.
That I-35 highway shot sure does have a lot of debris going for a swim, Dan. Our Brandywine River sometimes hosts those same kind of swimmers post-storm.
Oh, Dan!!! This is an extraordinary collection of bridges. I find that bridges symbolize connections, linking people and places, overcoming obstacles, and facilitating communication and understanding. What a great way to begin a new week. Many thanks, Dan!
I’m so glad you like these, Rebecca. I love bridges. Linking people and places is much more important than most people understand or appreciate. There are places we just wouldn’t go, if there wasn’t a bridge.
We did the Bike Tour twice, Cheryl. The last time, the invitation was by lottery. We got in, but there were so many people that it choked up in too many places. Also, even though we got there early, we were behind a ton of riders who paid extra to be in the starting group. It just wasn’t fun any more.
Hi Dan – as granddaughter of a bridge designer – these are lovely to see. I really enjoyed the trestle ones when I was out in Canada – I don’t remember seeing them here – though I guess modern design must have taken some of their engineering aspects. Lovely photos – and good to see you and Faith together …cheers Hilary
