I'm curious if anyone has seen the nice post & beam bridge on the bike trail east of Newark Ohio? It parallels St Rt 16 as it cruises by the Longagberger Basket/Office building. [Is it a huge basket or a building? It's hard to tell] Anyway we admired the work - whoever built it and wondered if others had seen it's nice lines and strong bones.

We did see that bridge while working on the Crawford Barn for the Longaberger Company. The trail ran right behind the shop they provided us with to do the repair work needed. Nice bridge indeed.

The basket is their central office building. Much nicer inside than out. Interesting stories are told about the pilot who flew his plan through the handles. Legend has it he was never caught.
