Sunset Celebration

We took a very special walk a few nights ago. We drove to the new Crown Point Bridge over Lake Champlain, parked at the information building, and then walked across the bridge while watching the sun go down behind the Adirondack Mountains.

The bridge itself should be featured on 'Modern Marvels'. It looks like a piece of artwork.

 Look at all these bolts holding it together!


It was fun looking down 79 ft. to the water, and we were surprised at how many people in boats had come out to witness the sunset.

We had to laugh when we read this sign. Dave was in NY and I was in VT, but we were standing next to each other.

What a spectacular evening to be either on the water or high above it!

 Just as the sun disappeared, we noticed that the moon had already risen.


What a perfect way to celebrate the new bridge completion, the fact that we saw it being built, and another great day in the north country.
