   Hey, thanks.  That's a cute little bridge.  Someday I'd like to build one about that size for myself, when I find some land with a creek on it.

   You don't usually find suspension bridges that size, just because they're not very economical compared to the alternative.  They're nice though.  One of my first was a 60 foot suspension bridge, built for a town that had always had a swinging bridge there.  The old one got killed by a wayward cottonwood.
