Dear ,

    Wayne

I am finally beginning to see the light at the end of the covered bridge! This has been quite a quest to find and photograph all the Oregon covered bridges and to draw enough of them to make a calendar. I still have Number 10 on the drawing board to finish; then 2 more to go. Thanks to those of you who have been so encouraging and patient. We WILL have a 2014 covered bridge calendar!

 

I should have saved Grave Creek Bridge for the last one; that would have brought the project full circle. This was actually the first bridge I photographed... before I had any intention of drawing anything. You can read about that below along with the links to some really interesting history of the bridge and a fun stop on I-5. 

 

We will be at Heritage Mall in Albany, OR, for 4 days  October 18-21. Come on out, say hi, and see what I am going to be working on. (I was working on Grave Creek  Bridge when we were there in May.) If you are on our Mid-Willamette Valley mailing list, you will get that information soon. There are directions below for how to check and update your email preferences. Be sure to 'like' us on Facebook too so you don't miss anything.

 

Hope to see you at the Mall!

The photographs of this bridge were added to my files long before I ever thought I would become a professional artist. In 2001, Kathy took an 'extension' class about the historic Applegate Trail. One of her assignments was to travel a portion of the route, stopping along the way at various interpretive centers and signs, to document her study. That documentation had to include photographs of her at the various sites; I got to go along as her official photographer. Living in Crescent City, CA, at the time, we traveled the section...  Click to read full commentary
