A Road Not Often Taveled...Palette Kinfe Painting by Peg Whitacre

Covered bridges can be found in many sections of our country.  The older ones are usually found in more remote,  rural areas.  Some are still in use, but many no longer support the weight of our modern day traffic.  Some communities take great pride in their local bridges and keep them painted and supported for minimal traffic.  Others have been turned into picnic areas with only foot traffic allowed.  This bridge was at one time a direct route from farm to market and is still used on rare occasions.   They are great fun to photograph and paint.
