Bridges - Day 43

  Lots of bridges of various kinds today. This is a personal favorite. This is the Jeremiah Morrow bridge that carries I-71 over the Little Miami River. It's the highest bridge in Ohio at 239 feet above the water. This picture isn't very pretty, but it's a Fleming Deck Girder Bridge on the Little Miami Rail Trail. I thought it was kind of neat that they left the decking off this section where there had been either a siding or double track so you could see the actual bridge structure.

This one in Morrow is much more interesting, except that I know nothing about it other than that it's a through truss bridge where the railroad crossed Todd Fork. End and side views.

There are other kinds of bridges. This church was building bridges with trail users. I was really pleased to see this welcoming sign.

And bridges can also be a symbol of transitions. Big transition today. I have now met up with Denali and her friend Carl. Carl will stay a few days, and then Denali and I will be together for quite a bit of Ohio. And, stay tuned for another surprise in a few days as well.

The trailer was moved to a new location today. All is well, but it was a long day. The weather was gorgeous, and I cleaned out the landfill, otherwise known as my car, after I got to the new "home." We all went to a local deli to get sandwiches for dinner because we don't have the food preferences under control for cooking yet. There are going to be a few unorthodox days ahead, but I think we got it mostly sorted out this evening.

Miles today: 14.6. Total miles so far: 616.8.
