Old US 14 Bridge
Posted April 21, 2010, by MikeInPdx (mikeinpdx13 [at] yahoo [dot] com)

I don't know much about the history but I was born and lived in Sheridan County as a child. I remember crossing that bridge in Dayton on our way up to camping in the Bighorns.

I'm glad they saved it as a pedestrian bridge.
