I tell you, something is not right here. And it has nothing to do with the bridge. The bridge is perfect and beautiful. I just don't understand how Kenny can be both a Spartans and Wolverines fan. I didn't think that was possible. ;-)

Wife went to MSU, son is at U of M. I am smart enough to support both sides.

I think we've pretty well wrapped this one up. I finished the railings and started the backfilling. It will take a while to compact the backfill and then I will probably stain it next spring after the treated wood dries out (not much more warm weather left here). I've added a downstream picture (I know I've got to patch that crack in the spillway) and a photo to show where this bridge is actually located, which may explain why we went a little overboard on the appearance. I passed the stress test (tractor with full bucket and box blade and, more important, has been signed off by the Boss.

We'll be looking for pictures of that. I don't remember anyone actually doing a covered bridge here.
