Where we were (or Where were we?) on Highway 41


When last I posted Streetview images for the Highway 41 end-to-end Streetview trek, it was entering historical and scenic Rockville, Indiana.

Why is Rockville historical and scenic?  Because of covered bridges, that's why.

For some information about that:

Parke County, Indiana (coveredbridges.com)

Main Street Rockville


We're going to have to take a look around Rockville, because it's historic.

In Rockville, we'll turn right on West Ohio Street.


By the Ritz Theater.



Downtown next to the Parke County Courthouse, which appears to have been under renovation at the time StreetView drove by.



Parke County Visitor Center, where the Covered Bridge Festival takes place, because Parke County has 36 covered bridges.



Now let's go find a covered bridge. Just down the road is the Billie Creek Bridge and the Beeson Covered Bridge. Here's the Billie Creek Bridge.



The Beeson Covered Bridge isn't visible from the road. Since you can't see it, I have a picture below.

















So now that we've had a look at a couple of bridges in a county famous for them, let's get back to the highway, where more nearby adventures await.
