Cement Arch at Arkansas/Missouri Border |
I've had no time for reading, of course, but I'll get a few pages in tonight before I crash - can't wait to get back to Alafair Burke's Long Gone to see how that one turns out. I have less than a 100 pages to go and still can't figure out just who the "bad guy" really is. Very cool book.
(The photo is of a rather crude arch that marks the border between Arkansas and Missouri on Highway 61. This is a fairly isolated spot, so little traffic this evening, in fact, that I was able to stand in the middle of the highway to take the picture. Two cars came by in the whole time I was there (over five minutes). I wonder if Missouri has put more of these little arches along its border?
That's pretty cool. I like how you can see the defined line in the pavement. It looks like Missouri is taking better care of their roads than Arkansas is! :)
ReplyDeleteHow high is that arch? Just wondering - I think about these things, because my dad is a trucker. I'm assuming it's high enough for a semi, or that there is an alternate route that semis are supposed to take.
ReplyDeleteYep, the Missouri folks seem to be keeping up their side of the line a little better, or at least more recently, than the Arkansas guys.
ReplyDeleteLibrary Girl, I would estimate it at about 12 feet...but it really looks tiny since it only spans two lanes of traffic.
