Sunday Afternoon Adventures

 Albert & I enjoy Sunday afternoon drives in the country. This sunny August afternoon took us north-west of Miami in search of this wooden trestle bridge that I had read about on a friend's blog.

 The fields are showing strong signs of a harvest fast approaching. Such a beautiful sight of contrasting colour.

 The steel rails have been removed but the bridge in still in very good shape. We didn't follow the trail but it looked well-traveled.  Next time, we'll see where the trail goes.

 The timbers are standing tall & straight.

 Just such a beautiful summer's afternoon.





 Find this sign underneath the bridge. Will try to find some history about this.



Lots of timbers were used to make a strong & study structure. We continued our exploring in the area & followed various roads & enjoyed miles of ripening grain, beautiful farmyards & ended our afternoon with coffee & ice cream.

I'm glad you found this bridge. Those Sunday afternoon drives cane so much fun. We used to do a lot of that,and I enjoyed it a lot.
