The Keating's Ultimate Covered Bridge Tour Part

Hi Folks
On September 20, we saw one more bridge, the Lord's Creek
Bridge, a private bridge in Irasburg. It is a rare Paddleford truss bridge. I liked its open
latticework.
A noted Northeast Kingdom author, Howard Frank Mosher,
lives in Irasburg. Upon returning from our trip, I went to the library and borrowed one of his
books, "North Country: A Personal Journey." It is about his trip from Maine to Washington state
along the US-Canada border. I enjoyed it and recommend it.
On September 21 we visited Maple St., Poland, Brown's
River, Scott, Church, Mill/Lumbermill, Montgomery, Morgan, Union Village and Thetford
Center bridges.
There are two pictures of the Poland, because Liz liked the
135-foot arch. The Brown's River Bridge has been bypassed and is well taken care of--note the
flowers in the foreground. The second picture of the Morgan Bridge shows me looking
downstream.
Thetford Center Bridge has a crack in a roof timber about
halfway in.
