Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)

A lot of sweet pics, thanks Mr.Mosesburb. How old do you think that barn is on the previous page? Covered wagon settler old? Those chunks laying on the road would be deadly. That is massive amounts of wash out. That's a sad sight of the marina that is gone now. I bet you see a lot of that on your travels. The water issue on the west doesn't sound like a good deal. Those bridges are nice. The stone one is pretty awesome. Did you dare to go across it on foot?

On our vacatoin to the Ozarks last month, we did some Nick Blank expedition-ing again. this time we went n search of 2 old bridges used for the military before world war 2. They are referred to as 2 swinging bridges. We drove over the first which was steel sheet covered suspended by steel cabling. It had a weight limit of 15ton. We were in a borrowed '14 F350 CC LWB diesel 4x4. I felt that was safe. The next bridge was twice as long with a 5 ton limit. It was wood decked. I was out. Haha We walked across it and there were spots where I was sagging. There was a couple at one end under it fishing,"Yelling drive across, we do all the time." They were driving a grand cherokee. Go right ahead. No way I'm pole vaulting that rig. I'll have to load the video some time and the pics to show you.
