Brown Covered Bridge
I VISITED BROWN AND NEW HOPE COVERED BRIDGES ON 02-13-2010. THEY LOOK GOOD, BUT I WOULD HOPE THAT PEOPLE CAN HELP KEEP THEM FOR FUTURE GENERRATION TO SEE.
Brown Covered Bridge
The first 2 photos seem to be the North Pole Rd. Bridge
Brown Covered Bridge
It is still there. I visited it as well as the other 5 in Brown County on Wednesday, November 28, 2007. Why can't the covered bridges be somehow preserved and kept for future generations?
