Found a new neat place for a Boxster Pic today
 
A state park about an hour away, the wife and I wanted to get away for a while today. I had never been here before. An almost deserted park with a bridge built in 1939...couldn't pass up a pic of the car.

Great shot! Looks like a good place to come back to as the seasons change. Send some of that warm weather northward please.:)

That is an amazing photograph. Makes the perfect background for your Boxster.

Cool, a cable suspension bridge.

Do they allow cars on it?
I'm thinking back then it was designed for traffic less than 2000 lbs unless they upgraded the cables to thicker and beefed up the anchor blocks.

A shot of the Boxster ON the bridge would be one of kind.

Excellent shot, do you know how old the bridge is?

He wrote 1939 so 77 years old

My bad, missed that, thanks.

No cars
 
In fact the sign says only 5 people at a time on the bridge, no one read that as I saw at least 20 people on it at one time. By the time we left the park was deserted and I took the car pictures
