found a covered bridge in CA


Hi everybody: I think most of you know that I am "into covered bridges."
My friend, Sandy Hiner in Bakersfield, CA, told me about this bridge in one of California's state parks. It was not that far off of I-80, close to a cute little town, Nevada City, CA. Nevada City was a gold mining boom town. Now it is full of little shops, antiques, old restored hotels, and a wonderful little restaurant where I had a yummy dinner Monday evening. I went back to the bridge on Tuesday a.m. when the light was better to take my pictures. It is supposed to be the longest single-span covered bridge left in the U.S. This Bridgeport bridge is listed at 229 feet.
