Almost a month old, I missed this post. Great photos Kelly! What town is it in?

Thanks. It's in Esopus-Rosendale. Never heard of it? Don't worry, neither had I.

Here's a link to the Wikipedia article and you can see roughly where it is.

Oh my goodness! :shock: In that second picture it looks like someone took a knife and carved "Kelly Lucerno" and "2011" right into the wooden railing!

The best way I can describe the location is -- it's close to New Paltz. :) It's really quite easy to find and it's a neat spot with the new (non-covered) bridge so close!
