I live in the arid country of southern Arizona. We have bridges, but the go over washes, which are dry river beds that only have water during monsoon season. They are boring flat bridges, grey-brown in color to match the desert.
But…then…in Florida… 
Yeah we were crossing a bridge through an amazing preserve and low and behold there was water under that bridge. Lots of water, for miles and miles.
I got a view of this bridge as we were coming up to it. 
Seriously,how cool is this!?!? Ok, there are no cool bridges like this anywhere in Arizona.
Official bridge geek here.
I believe bridges are forms of art.
So amazing, and thrilling to drive over and through. 
The geek in me wonders how engineers design these so they will continue to stand during hurricane winds. It’s math – physics, yes but it is fascinating.
Some are so elegant and graceful you feel grateful to have the opportunity to use them.
Some we drove on really looked as if they might need a bit of reinforcement or elevating. 
When we were crossing the Mississippi River into Memphis on a rainy night it was pretty spectacular and bumpy. 
You can see the rain drops on the windshield and the Tennessee sign on the cool bridge spanning the river, and the lights of the city in the distance.
Big river, pretty lights.
And then, in Mississippi (the state) we ran into this awesomeness.
A freaking tunnel that took us through the bay and under downtown Biloxi!!
Fabulous.
Yep.
Very cool at night too.
Cheers!
