Longview, Washington - Giant Wooden Squirrel

On the large lawn expanse beside the town library, there is a large wooden squirrel. Definitely too large to cross the street on the Nutty Narrows Bridge nearby, but then, this squirrel could hit a Buick and only the latter would be hurt. [Trav, 12/24/2001]

Longview, Washington - Squirrel Road Crossing

Next to the large lawn expanse beside the town library, there is a bridge over the top of the road specifically designed for squirrels. There are a lot of trees down either side of the road, and clearly a little too much roadkill for the residents of Longview. Named the Nutty Narrows Bridge, it has apparently been there since 1963. Struck me as kind of quaint. I even saw squirrels using it to move from one side of the road to the other. [Trav, 12/24/2001]
