mraf Posted August 17, 2008 Share #1 Posted August 17, 2008 We arrived home Friday from Missouri visiting our son at Ft. Leonard Wood. Made a few stops along the way coming home. Thought I'd post a pic to see if anyone knows where we are or have been here to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mini-muffin Posted August 17, 2008 Share #3 Posted August 17, 2008 Looks like your gonna cross a covered bridge. Of course I don't know what state, city, county, or town it might be in. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikealiasmike Posted August 17, 2008 Share #5 Posted August 17, 2008 It looks like one of the brides in Madison County Iowa where the movie "Bridges of Madison County " was shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halfwitt Posted August 17, 2008 Share #7 Posted August 17, 2008 I can't read what is written on the bridge. Can you give us that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juggler Posted August 17, 2008 Share #10 Posted August 17, 2008 It's the Jackson Bridge in Parke County, Indiana!! I was about to post Jackson Bridge. I was able to enhance that much of the photo to read that. I still had no clue where it was located so you win that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mraf Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share #11 Posted August 18, 2008 It's the Jackson Bridge in Parke County, Indiana!! Yes, you win but what who knows. Good guess, or were you ever there? There are quite a few covered bridges in Parke county, Indiana. All fairly well kept up. We stayed at the Parke bridge motel on U.S.36 at Rockville, Indiana. Very nice,clean room Motel run by a very nice lady. Plus her overnight rates are very reasonable. Cost us just a few bucks over $50. Don't know about the rest of you but we are always looking for the little mom and pop motels to stay at. If for nothing else but to give us a different experience. The motel chains along the thruways are always so predictable. Same rooms set in the same type of locations. With the purchase of the room the owner all so told us that if we wanted to go to the movie playing in town all we had to do was show them the motel key and we could get in free. We didn't take her up on it but how many perks do the humdrum motels give you? OH wait I know......ZIPPO,NADA. One more thing if you happen to ever stay here walk up the block to the bar/restaurant and check out the place. I've never seen so many local stuffed animals in one place. If it walked,flew,swam or crawled I bet it is stuffed and in this bar. This county is notated for its big bucks and racks and they have some beauts there.

halfwitt Posted August 18, 2008 Share #12 Posted August 18, 2008 Never been there...just like the detective work to figure it out. We like covered bridges - maybe my bride & I will take a ride that-a-way. I'll wait patiently for my prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
