Anyone interested in an Old Bridge?

I love exploring out in rural areas, so when I came across this bridge I got excited. This was an old one lane bridge made of iron and wood. I found the bridge interesting because of the state of disrepair, and the fact it was not blocked off! My husband was with me, and he is a structural inspector by trade, so he looked this bridge over, and concluded that it should NOT bear weight! The root supports had long ago rusted out, and the wooden planks that covered the drive were rotted. Very interesting was the amount of "human possessions" that had been dumped off the bridge. Washing machines, bicycles, car parts, even a safe. We really wanted to spend some time under the bridge, since the creek was so low, but neither of us had our "snake boots" on. I want to go back and get some photo's of the things people have left at this bridge, and more of the bridge itself, so if you are interested, let me know. It is near Kellyville.

LMAO, welcome to Oklahoma, that bridge looks much safer than others I've driven over haha.

Since its close to Kellyville, thats probably the infamous "cry baby bridge".

I believe this is the same bridge

I'm disappointed...I thought someone was selling a bridge. I always buy bridges!

That's a really cool bridge.
