I hate them. They are among a group of small bridges in my area that keep me from traveling to all points in my township, let alone county. I have almost 900 acres of farmland I can't use, and neither can anyone else, because the ground is on a 6 ton road, with a 9 foot wide bridge. The entire township I live in is separated by single lane bridges. There is 1 road in the entire township that is not single lane wide, dividing the east from the west. That road leads to Burgettstown, where the road squeezes down to about 14 feet,with a 6 ton limit, with concrete wall on one side and guardrail and cliff to creek on the other. There is no way around Raccoon Creek. If it isn't a covered bridge, it is a train tunnel that is 9-11 feet wide and 9-11 feet high, or a cast iron or steel or concrete bridge that is no more than 13 feet wide. It is horrible and I hate it!
Normally, I would enjoy the history I have, but this ruins things and ruins shipping and transport and normal travel. I want them to be moved or new roads to be made around them. It is not good for me or anyone where I live. I like the history, but, it's time history gets put in the museum and we are allowed to LIVE and be able to continue the farming heritage that first built this western frontier township that I live in.

Located in West Central Illinois, the pine forest was the setting for the opening of the 22nd show. This year we decided to try to sell a few tractor parts, literature and wrenches to offset my husband's buying sprees. Saturday
