*New  Documentary*
Medora!  Longest  Covered  Bridge  in  the  United  States!
Two  important  aspects  about  this  documentary.  First,  for  over  10  years  I  have  been  trying  to  find  someone  to  fund  a  video  project  about  this  very  historic  bridge.  That  finally  happened  two  weeks  ago  and  without  their  help,  this  video  would  never  exist.  Thank  you!  Secondly,  I  was  told  about  where  I  could  find  the  initials  of  the  stone  masons  who  built  the  abutments  and  piers  in  1875  and  I  found  them!!!!  The  story  is  in  the  comments  below.
Tim Berry: The Cornish-Windsor Covered Bridge between Cornish, NH and Windsor Vermont is 449' 5" and still carries traffic, two spans.
[Why don't people just include the link in the description?]

431' long (131m)
The state spent over a million dollars in 2011 to restore the bridge.
I watched this video when it showed up in my YouTube feed. I don't like "come explore with me (i.e. watch me walk)" videos so I stopped watching at 12:00 when I got another ad.
