This has to be one of the most dreaded posts I have ever done.
Honestly, going to Ashtabula, spending an entire day there taking pictures, then having to come home and sort/edit these has been quite the task. But here it is and it only took me 3 months!

Built: 2008
The longest covered bridge in the U.S.
Inside the Smolen-Gulf Bridge
NETCHER ROAD BRIDGE: 110 ft. long
Built: 1998
Do you see all the people. It was a little disappointing that some/most of the bridges can not be driven through, because of all the tables they had set up.
Plus the all the people ruin my picturesque scenes I had so dreamed of photographing.
Note to self: Do not go during the festival time.

Built: 1890
BENETKA ROAD BRIDGE: 138 ft. long
Built: 1900
GRAHAM ROAD BRIDGE: 97 ft. Long
Built: From remants of a bridge washed downstream in 1913
This ugly bridge (Graham)was so covered in people
it wasn't even worth getting out of the car to take a picture.
Plus Boyd was boycotting the fact that we couldn't drive on it.
ROOT ROAD BRIDGE: 114 ft. long
Built: 1868

This bridge contains 97,000 feet of southern pine and oak

The Harpersfield bridge is the 2nd longest bridge in Ohio.

THE END
Now now, you can't think that we went on a photography trip
without taking pictures of us having fun right?
(Warning: picture overload!)
My Repunzel hair out the window
"stick your head out further, I can't see you."
"I can't. I'm too short."
"Like this. See?"
"Ohhh"
Yup, that's how that conversation went.
So, this ferris wheel. It was supposed to be up and running.
We drove an extra 40 minutes out of our way to go ride it
and when we pulled up . . . empty. Cue sad music.
But all is well because we had fun doing other things like . . . .
Boyds will be boys
and when they see buggies on the ground they have to pick them up
SICK!
Some of them got squished! ha!
So what do we do with squished woolly bears?
You flick them off the bridge and watch them slowly fall until they meet their doom!
Not to mention there were hungry fish in the river below this bridge and we saw the chomp these fuzzies up! ha ha ha.
Poor poor woolly bears.
So Boyd had this habit of . . .
I don't even know what to call it.
One minute I would be taking pictures, the next I would turn around to find him. . .
He says he was "looking for the best angle"
On the right he is giving me his "hand over the camera" hand.
Although I will give him credit, he took some amazing pics standing on stumps.
Honestly, I think it's because he likes to climb on things.
Seriously, maybe he was trying to be the karate kid
Even though this picture is blurry I still love it.
Yep, that's who we are.
The End
