After the Crest: Bridges and Boat Houses

North of the Quaker pant is a RR bridge. RR cars were parked on it in efforts to stabilize it from the strong currnet and pressure as the river flowed through. North of the bridge is the Ellis Boat House community. These are cabin homes built on individual floating platforms. Some broke loose from their moorings and floated down river, some intact, and slammed into the RR bridge adding to the pressure. As of this morning The bridge still stands.
