Blennerhassett Bridge

I was up in the Parkersburg WV area a couple of weeks ago and got this shot of the Blennerhassett Bridge.



There's one good spot to get a shot of this bridge, and that's on a boat in the river. I hope to do just that next summer. But you know how they say life is what happens when you're making other plans.

Here's another.

It's a cool bridge to drive across. Sometime when the traffic is right, maybe I'll be brave enough to pull over, jump out of my car and get a picture of the river.

In case you wonder how the Commonwealth of Kentucky is paying for a new bridge over the river at Louisville ...

Keeping with the Kentucky theme, here's a short article -- one of many lately -- about the coal woes of Central Appalachia.

Moving up the river a bit, Asian carp may or may not be present in the upper Ohio. This explains the ambiguity in an otherwise "duh" statement.

I can't believe I've not made it up to the river museum in Marietta, Ohio, yet. This gives me another reason to go.

That's about all for now. More later, maybe.
