A Historic Hike







This Friday Jared and I went hiking to a historic bridge in Denton. We have lived here for years now, but have never explored all there is to see and do here. We visited the Denton museum a few months ago for the first time and wanted to see what other places there were to visit. We found Old Alton Bridge which has been around for a long time and carries a rich history. History is interesting and encompassing. No matter where you are there are historical landmarks or places that have been traveled before. They echo the past and provide insight into settlement, traditions, and life in a different time. For a little more info on the bridge you can visit:

What are some of your favorite historical places?
