Wish You Were Here Postcards – Sawmill Creek Bridge, New Brunswick

Sawmill Creek Bridge is one of the covered bridges of New Brunswick in Canada. The fact that there were any covered bridges in Canada was news to me and I was quite thrilled to see it. Covered bridges are a bit of a novelty to Australians. Sawmill Creek bridge was built in 1905 and was destined to be demolished when the road was diverted. It  is one of a handful of covered bridges which have been preserved in an effort to save historic structures.

   I thought covered bridges only existed in Iowa. I never knew about them until I watched, ‘The Bridges of Madison County’ xx

   Oh I adore these covered bridges in the US and Canada. They are awesome. My only question is….. Why do you have to walk your horse through to avoid a fine, but you can drive through no problem. Weird! Haha. 🙂
