Search: Covered Bridge Scenic Byway Covered Bridge Scenic Byway Overview Send as postcard Hune Covered Bridge (OH) Nothing could be more romantic than meandering through the countryside on Covered Bridge Scenic Byway. Forested hills alternating with open pastures create an aura of the 19th Century that will seem real when you pass underneath one of the four covered bridges along the byway. During the horse and buggy times of the 1800s when these covered bridges were novel and pristine, the defiant youth referred to them as "kissing bridges." But the proper term was "wishing bridges," and it was tradition to hold your breath and make a wish as you passed through. Send as postcard Black Mail Pouch Barn and Tractor (OH) On a Sunday afternoon drive you can see the light dancing on the pavement from the sun shining through the trees. Roll down the windows and you will hear the Little Muskingum River rushing alongside the byway as it bends and turns through Wayne National Forest. Dappled along the byway are several barns built in the 1800s decorated with advertisements for Mail Pouch Tobacco on them. Like the covered bridges and the other quaint pieces of architecture along the byway, Mail Pouch barns are rare and few of them can still be read.

Covered bridge at Pe Ell, Lewis County. Special Collections, UW Libraries, UW23822z Funding for encoding this finding aid was partially provided through a grant awarded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Werner Lenggenhager was known for his efforts to create a comprehensive photographic record of Seattleâs architecture and monuments during the 1950s-1970s. Originally from St. Gall, Switzerland, Lenggenhager moved to Queensland, Australia, where he bought his first camera. He came to San Francisco in 1924 and obtained American citizenship by 1931. Later, in 1939, he moved to Seattle. Lenggenhager worked at the Boeing Aircraft Company and continued to develop an interest in photography. During a trip home to Switzerland, he became aware of the value of the architecture he had taken for granted as a youth and began photographing historic buildings. Upon his return to Seattle, some of his photographs of Swiss scenes were exhibited at the Seattle Art Museum from June 8th to September 14th, 1949. The Seattle Public Library purchased forty of his prints to add to its Swiss collection.
