    BTW...I think I rode past your gargoyle today. Is it on 25, just south of where 25 and Dunham Rd split?
    Yes...just south of that construction area...it was actually a surprise...caught it out of the corner of my eye and went back for it...

    I found a list of IL covered bridges, there are several in the area...
    Unfortunately...the festivities are about to begin...

                  I love stuff like that, it sure would be neat if you had closer shots of it.

                        No one live near an old mill town? We got buildings all over that cross the rivers, usually old mills like that one.

                        Hope to see another tag or two before I leave on Saturday.

                          Pretty sure I've got one close to me...but I rarely ride on work days...

                          So....come on weekend...

                            If anyone lives in or near Bath England, there is a perfect one there!
                            You guys in the UK here's a great opportunity.



                            Pultney bridge, Bath England. Really cool bridge, I traveled across it last year, has small shops and everything, it's cool!

                              Wow nice one. I think the heat is putting a damper on it for many. I know of a building close by me but... no way Jose. Maybe Friday if it's still up.
