Were there actually boiling springs there?
Are they still boiling?
Looks as if it was/is a nice town.
My kind of town. Streets that could be walked through neighborhoods and enjoyed in many ways.

There are large numbers of natural artesian well springs located in and around the town that give the appearance of "boiling"; not actually hot.

OK. That;ll work even better because most hot springs stink. :)

Those must have been some incredibly strong chains holding such a heavy, cumbersome , ready-to-roll load aboard !

There were probably some wedge shaped end blocks to build up and stabilize each load. Stacking logs and then restraining them........I'd been more worried about the attachment points of the chains on the cars than the actual chain. I've never had a chain itself fail when dragging logs or pulling anything. I have had failures everywhere else.....

Come out to my place in late Oct. // early Nov. and we'll get you cutting a bit of wood. Got another dead ash to drop and a few large trees up in the woods to harvest.

Good fun!

...like so many of such in-tandem bridge crossings below long, low hills, along the Monongahela, Youghiogheny, and Allegheny rivers in western Pennsylvania , so many of which I crossed afoot, or astride a motorcycle, or in a car. That picture grants many fond memories of nice places (used to be, nice.

Murph,
It seems that you are seeing in many of these photos scenes that remind you of earlier days and things that you did then just as they do me.
Well I hope that makes sense.
