riding around Texoma
The other day we decided to tour some back roads so went up across the Denison dam (lake Texoma). then through Cartwright, Colbert and Achille Oklahoma. On Google maps I saw a bridge across the Red River at Carpenters bluff and back to Denison.

Re: riding around Texoma
Really cool, love old bridges, its a shame that more and more of them are being closed or replaced, but you know, nothing lasts forever and it probably costs a small fortune to keep these in usable shape...
