ABC Wednesday: C is for Culvert

Part of a trail near my house as well as part of the road was undergoing construction until recently.

After they finished I realized they were putting in a new culvert which I photographed in the first shot. The second shot is of another culvert.

Roger Owen Green said...: When I was five, I was at a zoo and started following the culverts. My parents thought I was lost. *I* knew where I was!

Great "C" word (I have to admit I did not know what they were called). I love learning new words and never disappoint me!

Have a great week.; January 29, 2013 at 11:16 AM

Sharp Little Pencil said...: Great photos, Carver. I could almost smell the somewhat dank air near the culvers. My dad was an engineer, so I knew the difference between a culvert and a sluice (the huge piped version). But when one person mentioned "The C Word," I had to laugh about some of the pictures you MIGHT have taken. Yeah, I'm the wicked pastor's wife, what can I say? Peace, Amy
