Jim –

I’ve visited most of Maine’s surviving bridges, and made a point of seeing all the Paddlefords…

Spent some months on the Bennet Bean up in Lincoln Plantation back in ’04 – here’s a few pix as much because they fit the season, as to give you a look see.



Spruced up (triple entendre pun intended) portal, just after we rolled her back over the river.



Much new timber.



Touchdown – Note the graduated breather blocks betwixt the bolsters and the chords to deal with the reintroduced camber.


And there’s some good news on the Gudgeonville – They made some arrests yesterday.
