10/23/11: Memorial Bridge between Springfield and West Springfield, MA I hope you are liking my photo journey of Springfield. It really can be a beautiful city.
10/26/11: Bennington College, VT. Took a trip to Bennington for a funeral on Friday (my uncle). As my cousin said, some good came out of bad. I got to meet some family members I had never met before, reconnect with some I haven't seen in a while, and I got to turn it into a photographic trip. Funny how you spend a good portion of your life somewhere and never see the beauty.
10/27/11: Buskirk Bridge, Hoosick, NY Some of you may recognize this bridge even if you have never been to it. It is one of 29 historic covered bridges in New York state. It has a William Howe truss design and served the great Northern Turnpike beginning in 1799. It is especially meaningful to me as it is close to Hoosick Falls (where I have family) and White Creek (where my grandparents lived and my uncles grew up). The most famous resident was Grandma Moses, who was friends with nearby neighbor Norman Rockwell. Here is an interesting link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandma_Moses
