Isaiah 43:19 “Behold, I am going to do something new, now it will spring up; Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.”

Had to find a better place due to where the storm was coming in from. I had reposition myself right next to the High School football field. Long extended ditch that has a small roadway. Couldn't have asked for a better open sky than this.
This storm was moving rather slowly about 10 mph to the due north almost northwest. Outflow dominate, simply meaning this had nice outflow. A shelf cloud on the outer rim of this storm as it approached. B E A U T I F U L!

What would you guess? Probably a decade ago as a bird was sitting up on those wires it dropped a Malus Lollipop Crabapple tree seed into the ditch at the side of the road. In her not so quiet solitude she grew to be the Queen of the road.
Maybe for people who in live in the more quieter parts of the world may not understand but for someone who lives in one of the most congested parts of North America the concept of walking into the middle a quiet road for minutes at a time and not worry about getting run over and taking in the blessed silence is a simple pleasure.
The Roman Bridge at Saint-Thibéry (French: Pont romain de Saint-Thibéry) was a Roman segmental arch bridge on the Via Domitia in southern France. The partly surviving structure crossed the river Hérault in Saint-Thibéry, 17 km east of Béziers.
The ancient bridge had nine arches with spans of 10–12 m. The roadway rested on wide piers, which were protected on both sides by arched floodways and large cutwaters. The original length of the structure is estimated as 150 m, its road width as 4 m. The missing spans are known to have been destroyed by flood some time before 1536.
The remaining arches, with a span to rise ratio of 3.3:1 (115°) or more, show a visibly flatter profile than the semi-circular arches usually preferred by Roman engineers (180°). The rib thickness varies between one-tenth to one-twentieth of the span, corresponding to a common ratio also observed at a number of other Roman stone bridges. The structure is dated to the reign of emperor Augustus (30 BC–14 AD). Immediately upstream an old water mill and its millrace is located.

The road by High Newton Reservoir stretching out into the distance. The reservior was created in the 1870s to provide Grange-over-Sands with it's first proper water supply. It's mainly for fishermen now.
It is believed this bridge was built in the 12th century at the side of the White Mill. The latter is now owned by the National Trust although it was originally part of the Kingston Lacy estate, now also NT.
This handsome red and white, Norman bridge is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and probably the oldest bridge to cross the River Stour.
The bridge is 210ft long and, at 12ft wide, has never been widened. The largest of its eight, arched spans is 19ft 6in. The arches are nearly semi-circular, and the face stones of the arch ribs are picked out with white limestone, alternating with the red sandstone which forms the bulk of the material.
Pointed breakwaters on both sides of each pier are extended upwards along the length of the bridge to provide refuges on either side of the roadway. The masonry parapet rests on string course also picked out in paler stone, and the overall effect is both solid and striking.
There is a record that in 1341, three shillings were bequeathed for repair of the bridge. Rather more substantial renovation was carried out in 1964.
