Farmer Bridge - August 2003 In 2003 I was living in a parsonage right on the edge of the Edwards River valley/floodplain. I used to take early morning or late evening walks down into the valley. There were several large creeks which divided the farmers’ fields. One farmer had a rather ingenious solution to crossing the creek. He bought an old railroad flatcar and placed it across the creek. It was long enough to adequately support itself on both sides of the creek and strong enough to support the weight of his farm equipment. It also made a really neat image with the glow of the sun on it. MWM
