The Secrets of Old Richardsville Road Bridge

Built in 1889 by the King Iron Company of Cleveland, Ohio, this bridge, running across the Barren River, on the outskirts of Bowling Green, KY is one of the last bridges of its kind. For those of you who might know a thing or two about architecture, this is a span bowstring, arch-truss bridge that spans 138.1 ft. The bridge was inducted into the National Register of Historic Places in November of 1980. Thanks to local entrepreneur David Garvin (recently deceased 1943-2014, may he rest is peace), the bridge was kept up with regular repairs, and is still in use daily by area natives.

Eastern Kentucky Explorations - Pike County

Greetings, fellow explorers! China Riddle here - a native Pike Countian, senior at Alice Lloyd College, foodie, and mini-adventure enthusiast. As much as I would love to be a member of the Explore Kentucky field team, I am moving after my graduation in December. So, they have graciously allowed me to act as a guest blogger.

The Hidden Gem of the Mountains

I'm from a small town in Eastern Kentucky called Jenkins. I don't get to go home often, but I recently took a trip there, and ended up having several sessions. I like using a model to test out new locations, and that's what Ashley helped me do. We went to Fish Pond Lake to scout out the area, and so that I could figure out some poses for an upcoming senior.
