Georgia Covered Bridges

[redbirds_imp]

Ferret, you have shown that lovely covered bridge near your home in previous threads so I wanted to show a couple of Georgia's covered bridges. This trip was planned with the idea of visiting most of the 20-something covered bridges, most being in the northern half of the state. We did get to see 4 bridges before a family emergency called us home early. I was on my 2007 Tiger 1050 and Pamela on her '07 V-strom. Someday I'm going to see them all.

Lovely and I hope you get out to see the other 16 soon.

Very nice!

Very cool birds. Covered bridges are such a part of the local history of each area.

Hope the family emergency was a minor one.

This trip was about 7 years ago. The emergency concerned an illness which, fortunately, ended well.

I try to seek out covered bridges when I can. Managed to see 5 or 6 in NH and a couple in CT last spring.

Why did they cover them in GA ? Do you get snow ?

I love covered bridges
This province had a great many covered bridges, but they are all gone now.
