Photo taken in 1973, during the process of building the New bridge at Sandy, at the mouth of Pigeon.

Notice the water running over the old bridge that was used for travel during that time.

It seemed that every time it rained, we got water bound. Then folks would use the swinging bridge

that was located to the right, in the yard of Woodford & Glade Helmick.
