Bridges and Buffalo

First is the Busching Bridge built in 1885 just outside of Versailles at the western edge of Versailles State Park. What a pretty bridge in a lovely quiet setting, just like you picture in your head when someone says covered bridge





Just past the bridge on a hill overlooking the covered bridge is a beautiful little farm that had a herd of buffalo. The lady was nice enough to let me snap a few pictures.









Finally there's the Medora Covered Bridge on State Road 235, the longest covered bridge in the United States. At 458 feet long it's hard just to get in one photo frame and an amazing site! It was built in 1875 by Joesph Daniels who built over 60 covered bridges In Indiana. It took about nine months to build.
The cost was: $18,142. The bridge is a bit run down and could use a bit of restoring. Considering it's amazing size and historic significance hopefully this will happen before the bridge deteriorates too much. You know me I'm allways driving out in the middle of nowhere to take pictures of covered bridges and this is the most incredible one I've ever seen
