Wetumpka AL - Bibb Graves Bridge/Coosa River



Wetumpka's beautiful focal point is one of only two suspended concrete reinforced bridges in the state of Alabama. It is the fourth bridge to span the Coosa River at Wetumpka, the fate of the first was unknown, the second was a covered bridge that was washed away in the "Great Flood of 1866" and the third was an iron bridge that was replaced by the current one in 1931. 
I took these photos today just before dinner at "Our Place" followed by a play presented by the Wetumpka Depot Players.  (BTW, dinner and play were both excellent!)
