    I really love seeing covered bridges and especially when they're in excellent condition and easy to…read moreaccess. This one is located just off I-20 west of Atlanta and it's a nice little drive. The bridge is in very good condition, completed in 1850 or so. It is the oldest existing covered bridge in all of Alabama! Originally located on Coldwater Creek and allegedly built by slaves, it was relocated to here and the original site now has a boring concrete and steel bridge. This bridge was fully restored in 1990 and is in excellent condition. The bridge is no longer open to vehiclular traffic but you can absolutely walk through it and think back to what it must have been to drive your horse-drawn wagon across this bridge.

    I've completely run out of historic covered bridges in Georgia, so I thought I'd spend a lazy…read moreSaturday afternoon amusing myself by driving around central Alabama. The first of my many stops was here in Oxford. Coldwater Covered Bridge was built in 1850 and is located at Oxford Lake Park just behind the Oxford Civic Center. It was relocated here in 1990 from its original location (about 8 miles west) and spans a small creek created by the overflow water from Oxford Lake. The bridge is 63-feet long and uses a hybrid combination of the Multiple King Post and Town Lattice truss systems. At 165 years of age, it is the oldest surviving covered bridge in the state of Alabama. It is also known as Hughes Mill Covered Bridge due to its proximity to Hughes Saw & Lumber Mill when it was first built. Although the bridge was severely damaged in 1920, repairs made it possible to keep the bridge functional for vehicular traffic. It was eventually replaced in 1974 by a concrete bridge, then totally restored before being relocated to its current home. The park and bridge can actually be seen from Interstate 20 and only takes you out of the way by a few minutes if you choose to stop here. Just take exit 185 for Hwy 21 (Oxford/Anniston) and go north to Recreation Road (currently there is a McDonald's on the corner). Follow it until you see the Civic Center and park on the lake side. Enjoy!

    This isn't about the Anniston post office specifically. It's about the whole organization. Just…read morepitiful. Worse than pitiful. I can't think of a thing they do well. If it's something you order and you need it quick, the USPS isn't it. Your package will stop at every hub post office in every state until it gets to you. The big hub here is in Birmingham, AL. I've had packages sit there for 3-4 days before they move it to Anniston about 30 miles away. I got a notice from the USPS Birmingham on Monday that my package was delayed because of severe weather. I looked out the window and the sun was shining. I got a notice last week my package was undeliverable because my mailbox was unavailable. Huh? Their informed delivery page is a joke. It's not even close to being right, ever. I've had 3 packages in there that were supposed to be delivered on Monday. It's now Wednesday and haven't seen package one. They just keep moving the date everyday. I've been down to the post office to find out what the issue is. I would have had better luck talking to my 3 yo. Nobody know anything or they're just not saying. And going to the USPS site to price postage for a package. Forget it. Page after page of of prices and zones. You need a PHD to read and understand it because of course there's no instructions. Go to the FEDEX or UPS sites, type in the package dimensions, weight and zip code. Presto! Instant price!. And their version of informed delivery is actually fairly accurate. Imagine that. If some day the law is changed and some competition is allowed for a competing mail service, the USPS will be gone in less than a year. And if congress stopped making up their $8 billion shortfall every year, they'd be gone tomorrow. And they do lose $5-8 billion dollars year after year. I guess that what happens when you hire people to sell stamps and pay them $85,000/yr.
