Ha, that Caledonia bridge is only about 20 minutes from my house. It is indeed in poor condition. You should come and check it out before they knock it down, which has been delayed until 2022
Oh, that’s a shame. It’s an interesting bridge.
Wowsers, I made your recommended reading post! I’m both grateful and honoured by the mention. Thank you Jim.
You’re most welcome!
Thank you so much for adding me to your list. I was so excited when I woke up to that this morning. It has been a hope of mine to one day make your list :)
My pleasure!
