The bridge is in the middle of the old part of town. If you travel West on Bus 66 past the county jail you can't miss it.
I lived 4 miles west of Waynesville from about Apr 1934 to May 1936. When we, my sisters along with Nina & Stanley Bowling had a nickle or dime we would walk to Waynesville and spend it on candy.At the most this would be a couple of times a year. We carried our lunch in a 1/2 gal Karo Syrup pail and drinking water in another one. At noon we would go down to the Roubidoux by the bridge and eat. After we finished our lunch we would walk back home. Our post office address at the time was Buckhorn. I lived about 1 mile east of Buckhorn and the Bowlings were about 1/2 mile east.
Its at the west end of town.
In layman's terms, just where is this bridge located? Is it in the town of Waynesville? I don't remember seeing this bridge.
