Great pictures Aggie. There is no way I'd go across that mile high suspension bridge. My son went with my parents over one when he was 13, this was at Chattanooga I think. My mom said he had a death grip on the ropes, I guess it was a rope bridge.

Well, after your pics and the other thread, I think I might need to take a ROAD TRIP!

yes. please do. you have a bed. it takes a couple of hours to get there from here (charlotte)we left at 7 this am:roll:. i am NOT an early riser, but we had to get there early to beat the crowd. it was a nightmare when we left, cars were lined up for one mile at least waiting to get in. not moi, i would have turned my happy behind around and found somewhere else to play tourist.

If I ever go anywhere but SoWal, I'll head your way. Thanks for the sweet offer!

Beautiful pictures. We were there several years ago & the bridge is scary & usually very windy.
