1 year agoCoincidence! We’re cooking up one for next year that will take us through Rochefort.
1 year agoI had a snarky comment to make about European shags but I’ll keep it to myself. You’re welcome. 😄
1 year agoAh, yes. I didn't copy/paste the links. I see it has reopened and is open April 1 through early November each year.
1 year agoThe one south of Rochefort is the one I crossed in 2012 or so. It's pictured in the links in my first reply.
1 year agoCool picture, but I don't care what you say . . . that's a giant crab.
1 year agoThe other one is just south of Rochefort. It was closed for a major retrofit when I was there in 2019 but I expect it should be open again now.
We are cooking up a trip for next spring and the plan is to include Bilbao and the Vizcaya Bridge.
I remember that now, though I’ve never seen it. This one was designed by a Basque architect, and is the first of its type in the world. I’ve updated the caption with more detail.
1 year agoShe is such an embarrassment!
1 year agoFunny. I was just thinking about Rifle, when I read that your excellent congresswoman and her husband had to be escorted from the theater for their poor behavior.
1 year agoWhen we first moved to Rifle, one of the city councilmen was ticketed for using a firearm in city limits. He was shooting at magpies that were eating the dog food he left outside for his dogs. It was an eye opening introduction to town, especially being a city councilman.
Jacinto forgot his phone holder this summer. Aymar, from the bike shop, kindly took the mount off of his own bike and let Jacinto use it for five weeks!
Good shot. We have found magpies to be very flighty birds that do not often stay still long enough for a decent shot.
1 year agoFriendly indeed!
1 year agoThey're called transporter bridges.

I think this needs to go in your end of the year compilation!
