Vermont Covered Bridges

There are over 100 covered bridges in Vermont. Many of Vermont's covered bridges were damaged or destroyed when hurricane Irene hit the east coast in 2011. So I found several bridges in various stages of restoration. Needless to say I did not visit all of the covered bridges; although, I would love to. It did seem that every time there was a stream or small river there was a bridge to be found. The Vermont visitor map has little bridge icons where the bridges are located, but no directions just an icon next to a river or stream. This is where the locals really came in handy. Many of the bridges were down dirt roads with no clue that a bridge was to be found. One time I was given directions to 4 bridges at one time. I had to remember all the directions. That was a challenge at my age. That reminds me of a sign I saw at one of the tourist stores I visited. It read "I would be nostalgic, but I can't remember anything".
