DUANE'S  WORLD  OF  ADVENTURE

Covered bridges symbolize something from the nineteenth century, a little archaic and strange to today’s eyes, picturesque and sentimental. They are photogenic and often remote from the interstate highways and cities of today. They lure the adventurer to find the little streams and dirt roads that today has almost passed the roar of the great world and left it sequestered and almost as picturesque as in its pristine days.  At one time there were nearly 12,000 covered bridges in the U.S.A.  Now, only about 900 remain in about 30 states - over 200 in our area to be explored.
