Low's Bridge Abutment
WGN 19-11-01

Hi Folks
      After our train trip, we headed towards New Brunswick planning to visit the last three of Maine's covered bridges that we had not yet seen--Low's, Robyville, and Watson.
      I have attached three pictures of Low's bridge, two of which show the abutments in detail, and of a sign giving the history of Low's bridge, with pictures of previous bridges.
      I have also attached three pictures of Robyville, one with abutment detail and one with Liz. The Robyville bridge is the only one in Maine with a shingle roof and Ben and June Evans, author's of a New England covered bridge book, believe that it is the only one in New England completely covered on the sides and portals with shingles.
      Finally, I have attached two pictures of the Watson bridge. The pictures are not in order, because some were taken by me and some by Liz.
      We entered New Brunswick, Canada about 7 pm, which became 8 pm Atlantic Standard time. We had a reservation at the EconoLodge in Woodstock, New Brunswick for three nights.
