This statue was made to honor the people who work to preserve the old covered bridges of our nation. It takes time, money, and effort to restore these historical structures. The large coin was given to me by the Ohio Covered Bridge Society. The three Gnomes repairing the bridge are named for three of Hollywood s finest actors. Lloyd Bridges is the name of the Gnome repairing shingles on the roof. His son Beau has just repaired the entrance, while brother Jeff has gotten a littie behind in his work. The second coin, by the entrance, pays for one trip through the covered bridge. |
