Historic wooden covered bridge built in 1868.  Located at Pymatuning Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania. 
Rare example of a "Smith Cross Truss" Bridge.
Added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on December 2nd, 1974.
On a recent trip to Grove City, we decided to go for a drive in search of a covered bridge.  Success!  We found this gem on Kidd's Mill Road just south of Greenville.  A little tricky to find but well worth the search.

Our first official road trip takes us - via back roads - to our Nation's Capital, Ottawa.

An enjoyable trip with many attractions and things to do.  Highly recommended ; Byward Inn as a place to stay downtown.  (All rooms have a balcony!)  Within walking distance to; Parliament Hill, Rideau Canal, Ottawa River Sightseeing Cruise, National Gallery of Canada, Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica, just to name a few.
Can't be missed is the Byward Market with cafes, specialty shops and the famous Beaver Tails Pastries.  We indulged in Chocolate/Banana as well as Apple/Cinnamon.  Both were awesome!

Very picturesque city with many photo opportunities.
