Orne Bridge, Coventry

"Halloween arsonists burned down the original 116 year old Orne Bridge in 1997, located in Coventry Village in the town of Irasburg. Two Vermont men were found guilty of pouring gasoline on the bridge and putting a match to it. Both were fined and sentenced to perform community service. After two years and a cost of approximately $400,000, a near-replica was officially opened on November 29, 1999."

Odd Shots: Manure Spreading

For some odd reason, I enjoy watching the farmers spreading manure on the fields. I was trying to capture the spray of liquid manure in the air, which you can see clearer if you click on the photos. They will open, full size, in a new window.
