Covered Bridges of New England….

Checking out covered bridges in New England!   I always thought it was to keep them clear of snow in the winter.... turns out the roofs are to stop rainwater from rotting the timbers and needing to completely replace the bridge every 10 years! This bridge is in Rexleigh - New York state.....  The bridge below is on the Vermont - New Hampshire border and crosses the Connecticut river.....
