The Old Become New Again
The Old Become New Again, I love photographing bridges. The architecture alone is quite impressive on these massive bridges that not only are a way of transportation across rivers, but they also remind me of adventure, what is on the other side. A thought of keep moving and learning cross my mind when I see bridges.
This bridge below is the Centennial Bridge in Davenport Iowa, crossing over the Mississippi River, very old but so pretty at night with all its lights on.
This bridge is new, up river from the first bridge. New design and look compared to the architecture of old.
As we travel south, there will be a few bridges to cross I am sure. As like this one in Illinois.
But as always, adventure awaits after every bridge crossed.
Have a Wonderful Weekend

The IL bridges aren’t very far from where we live. Hard to recognize them when there aren’t construction cones everywhere. 😉
Yes, that one we cross as we go through Illinois. I should really write down where these are, I will have to keep a note book with me.
It’s the Shade-Lohmann bridge across the Illinois River on I-474.
Thank you, I did not have a name for that one.
It seems to always be in the news here for the construction projects. You must have been travelling through off (non-construction) season. 🙂
Yes, I have never been there with construction, knock on wood.
Hi everyone, I’m new with WordPress and I write short stories told by little things around us (like a scrunchy, lollipop and the moon 😂) but anyways, do check it out if u like! 🥰
I love bridges too. I have crossed that Old bridge many years ago. Thanks for sharing

Beautiful old bridge. I really like retro classics like this.
Me to, they have more old school charm to them instead of the new ones. 😊

I ponti uniscono…un’invenzione dell’uomo che andrebbe usata anche nell’anima.
Very true 🙂 I like that.
So beautiful. Brought me a sense of peace I really needed right now. Dealing with grief and loss currently and your post meant so much.
I am glad these photos could help you in your time of need. Photography can help take you to another place, where you can relax your thoughts for a moment in time. Blessings to you 😌
So true.
Beautiful
Thank you very much Seraja😊

Thank you Seraja 😊❤

Thank you Seraja 😊❤
I like the, “adventure, what is on the other side” part! Thanks for sharing.
Yes, big bridges usually cross over to a new state or new park, island, that kind of thing. So I see them as a new adventure awaits 😊 thank you Marland, have a wonderful Sunday.
Thanks! Still a few wonderful hours left!
Nice
yep soo cool photos😊
Thank you very much 😊
It’s nice to see how the new bridge looks as you mentioned it being built several times and the older bridge always was lit up so nicely with great reflections on the water. Keep crossing those bridges Sandra.
Thank you very much Linda😊
This is a funny thing but bridges, especially high ones, scare the begebez out of me. I don’t know why but I have serious trouble crossing them while driving.

Just Laugh. Forget the other details
I know exactly what you mean. Some of them don’t bother me, but of they are tall and the side rails are to short, that freaks me out as well. I know I could never go across the Mackinaw bridge in Michigan, that one is so long. They shut that bridge down when it gets windy. 😊
Tnere is one in Toledo that goes over the city that I have to get off the freeway and drive through town to get past I won’t drive in it. It alst freaks me out to know there is one that goes from Florida to Key West I wouldn’t make that on a bet 😂🤣😂
So funny, I drove that road to key west back when I drove a Straight truck, smaller version of a semi, to deliver a satellite to a navy ship. 😉 back in my truck driving days. Once was enough for me.
THat would have been too many times for me 🤣😂🤣
Great! Old becomes new. You too have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you very much 😊
All are fine but that 1st bridge photo is so fine, Sandra. If I ever get back to Davenport I will make certain I cross that bridge when I come to it… especially at night.
Thank you very much Don, yes that bridge is so pretty at night, especially on a warm evening when the Mississippi River is calm, the bridge lights reflect in the water. So peaceful. 😊
Yes… bridges are awesome.
I think so to Greg.😊
I love bridges. The idea of making accessible that which once was not excites me … and the creativity of bridge designers causes me to imagine “What next?” Thanks for showing these lovely examples. This week we crossed London Bridge. That was a thrill!
Yes Jan, I agree. Amazing architecture. 😊
💙💙💙
Thank you very much Francine 😊
This post will bridge us until Monday! Enjoy the weekend 😊
Yes. I like that. Thank you Gerry, have a wonderful weekend. 😊
Nice… I didn’t think of the advantages of crossing bridges.. one side represents the hardship and the other side is new opportunities for amazing adventures… wow.. I c u.. impressive
Yes, wonderful metaphor. Bridges have always made me think that way. 😌 thank you
Interesting..
Beautiful bridges but the first with the lights on it, is realy special.
Enjoy your weekend Sandra.
Thank you very much Rudi, you as well. 😊
