Puzzle Description:

The bridge that crosses the mighty Tobique River in the small town of Perth Andover New Brunswick. People are raising their homes to avert more water damage. The river has overflowed almost every year and people and businesses are moving to higher ground because property insurance is too costly. What a shame,it's a beautiful little town.

Hello my old friend, darkness! :)

Nice entry Al, yet so sad! Let's hope everything goes well. Besos

that is sad news. this very thing happened in my city this summer - epic flooding. I googled this bridge and I have to say that you made it look even prettier. lovely image, aldege.

a very clever use of the original puzzle starter! lovely image, but what a shame the town is changing.

Thx everyone,yes it is a shame,however the fact that some people are raising their homes and putting in block foundations is an indication that they want to stay. The government is looking into what they can do to stop the flooding and hopefully more business will move into the abandoned shops and the town will thrive once again.:)

Gorgeous picture. Checked out pictures of Perth Andover. Looks like a great place. Hope is survives.

Thx Norma,I'm confident it will. It's a 20 klm drive for us to do our shopping in Perth,and a 15 klm drive the other way to the other nearest town Plaster Rock. We always go to Perth because we want to support business there,but we have to go to Plaster Rock for our doctor.:)

Pretty, but difficult to see without the explanation.

Thx Blackcat.:)

Beautiful drawing Aldege! I have been to Perth Andover and Plaster Rock. Love it down there in NB

Thx Susan,it is beautiful country. No matter which way we go from our house in Odell,we have a 20 minute drive thru winding roads along the Tobique River,and the scenery from the Trans- Canada Hwy. is amazing between Perth and Hartland.:)
