You'll want to venture down to the river's edge to photograph this quaint covered bridge, built in 1864 and famed for allowing the passengers of horse-drawn carriages to have a moment of sheltered canoodling, which earned it the nickname 'Kissing Bridge.' This is one of two covered bridges in the state you can drive across; the other, Bull's Bridge, is just 17 miles south, in Kent.
