I'm sure insurance picked up most of the bill on this one.

I'm guessing more that it wasn't really needed all that much so they had other things to do and on their mind that they got to first before they rebuilt the bridge. The new bridge looks good and I hope it lasts as long if not longer then the old one. I'm just glad they stuck with the covered bridge theme istead of going with a steel one. The wooden bridge fits in a lot better with the lodge then other designs would have I think.
