Lh Bridge - Tama, Ia


Recommended Posts

This is the famous LH Bridge in Tama, IA. It's the only one of its kind along the entire length of the route. Built in 1915, the bridge was in disrepair but a group worked to restore it in 1987 and it's a landmark along the road.

 

As a sidebar, the saloon in the background is Leno's with "danceing" Friday and Saturday. I dropped in to check it out and discovered that the bartender and I were the only English-speaking folks in the bar. She also spoke fluent Spanish and ordered my three tacos from the kitchen. The tacos are homemade daily and are made from chopped and grilled sirloin. They were served with onion and the house hot sauce. Delicious and authentic - best I ever had!....Bliss
