Pennsylvania Covered Bridges

My sister and I recently took the driving tour of some of the Bucks County Covered Bridges in Pennsylvania (see links below) - an absolutely wonderful thing to do. All the folliage hadn't changed yet, but beautiful nonetheless!! If you're ever in the area, definitely worth the relaxing drive through the country and along the streams and rivers to see some lovely preserved history of the
Bucks Co. 12 remaining Bridges.

  1. I miss the Pennsylvania mountains, coal mines, where football and hunting season used to close the local schools and businesses. Aspens are beautiful but those PA maples are the best in fall.
