As a native Buckeye I am perhaps a bit prejudiced, but I think Ohio is a very good place to be in the summer. Today was no exception. Deep blue skies, luxurious green trees, and a cool breeze holding our flags at attention made for perfect bike riding.
We rolled through the beautiful afternoon exploring Ashtabula County, located in the northeast corner of Ohio about as far from Pennsylvania as from Lake Erie.
We were in search of two historic covered bridges. The first we were able to ride through, and didn't get any pix of the creek bed.
However, on the other side of this bridge we found a gravel road which made for unsteady riding for about 4 miles.
From there we several miles until we turned on this pleasant little road. We searched this road three times before
finding the second bridge out of sight down a side road. A sign warning of a vehicle weight limit caused us to park the bike and walk. This turned out to be a good idea since the uneven plank floor made it unsafe to ride on two wheels.
We were amazed to find the creek bed far below the bridge.
Later we were treated to this beautiful sunset display.
It's not called Beautiful Ohio for nothing!
