It was a nice day for a walk in the park Sunday afternoon. Not too hot with clear blue skies.
Can you guess what this bridge used to be in its former life?
My daughter and I took a little road trip over the weekend. Stops at Lowe's and WallyWorld in this small city were a must, but we made time for a visit to a couple of the parks there.
This small park is my favorite because it has the bridge. I didn't get many photos at the other park as there were too many people and cars around and we were pressed for time.
This little bridge is only for walking, of course, and is made out of a boxcar from a train derailment in 1986. Did you guess what it was?
I think the railings are sort of like fencing so I'll link up tomorrow with Good Fences, too.
Happy Wednesday to you!

I wasn't able to guess but what wonderful creating . . .
ReplyDeleteThe boxcar top would become a great shelter on a rainy walking day . . .
Now that is a clever use of a derailed boxcar !! Your daughter is a beautiful girl. Takes after her mother. :):) Blessings, xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty young lady that you have as a daughter.... great tan! I kind of guessed the bridge, but I couldn't quite figure out the top and the sides together. Very neat and such a great way to use the top of the old boxcar. Glad you had a good time on this get-a-way!! Hope your day is filled with many Blessings....

First and foremost, what a beautiful daughter you have!! And what a lovely way to spend the day together.
ReplyDeleteAt first glance I thought "train" when I saw the bridge and then I thought, "No, bridge". Thanks for clearing up that confusion for me :D.
What a wonderful time, I'm sure. The park is beautiful and I really like that foot bridge...what a great idea! You also have a very lovely daughter...sounds like a great day!

neat bridge. i can see you in your daughter. totally!! looks like a fun day & hike together. ( :
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I think I would live there! How far away do you live? I guessed that it used to be a trolley or a streetcar. Close, but not right. Your daughter is beautiful! You would both win a mother/daughter beauty contest.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking it was a covered bridge.. Cool that they were able to use a car train for this bridge.. The park photos are pretty.. Enjoy your evening.
