Walking on The Water Pt.3



Once a common sight, swinging bridges are now quite rare in our area. I remember a number of them from my childhood. Built and maintained by our township road crew they were a vital link to civilization for the families who lived where only a low water fording afforded vehicle access to their home. This bridge is private and was erected by its owner to afford him easy hunting access to his mountain land.

Beautiful icicles contrast nicely with the green fern in the background



Here even the fast moving riffle has frozen over, preserving the ripples on the water


This post concludes the Walking on the Water Series
I hope you have enjoyed it. Soon winter will be past and only the memories and photographs will endure to remind us that on some days even we can

  2. That one icicle looks like a dagger.
