The Free Bridge in a Fog
Easton, PA:
A civil engineer's paradise.
Bridges Over Bridges
Once a hub of industrial transportation,
this small city boasts not only bridges,
but canals and rivers too.
Underneath Bridges
Surrounding the backdrop of this historical eye-candy,
Easton has been reinventing itself as a tourist town.
The Toll Bridge
Offering festivals
museums
tours
trails
concerts
trendy shops
and restaurants...
Abandoned Bridges
...Easton has almost become a worthwhile destination.
If it wasn't for the abundance of guards hollering and shouting at people
it would be a worthwhile destination.
And drive very carefully,
because police citations appeared rampant too.
I'm not sure what the reason was for soooo many people getting pulled over.
That part seemed a little hostile.
Rivers and Bridges
But it is a destination that is calling me to return.
Distant Bridges
On a recent day trip, my camera and I
only covered a square mile of what is to be seen and photographed.
Pants-on-the-Ground Bridges - They have them too.
(I just learned you are not allowed to take pics from this bridge.
Stupid.)
Nearby Phillipsburg (NJ), Lehigh and Allentown
offer up visual feasts as well.
River's Edge
And, I really need to figure out how to access
a rock outcrop that provides an visual overview of Easton.
I know it is possible.
I've read about it.
I've seen the images.
I just couldn't locate the access.
A Sad Bridge
So, I am going back.
Soon.
Red's Bridge, Phillipsburg, NJ
Officer 'Red' lost his life responding to a call of a domestic dispute.
Only this time,
I will find one of those trendy, upscale places for lunch.
Yum.
