Like a magic bridge
Like a silvered bow to dreams

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I really like your little bridge!!
There are lots of little bridges in my area but none as cute as yours.
I was wondering what it is made of? Is it handmade or something that can be purchased?
I agree with 2sweetnsaxy, I want one for the little ditch in my back yard.
