I've been through Beaver. Never from the road, always on the river/lake. That's a neat little community. I've seen railroad cut in the bluff, and the pilings from the old railroad bridge. I always thought I'd like to drive down and explore a little bit, see if I could follow the old railbed once it goes through the cut.

Actually if you go west of Beaver far enough you will find the road actually goes along on the old railroad bed all the way to Seglman (sp?) Missouri

Dude, I know you're not supposed to according to the sign, but I love hauling ass across the Beaver bridge and then slamming on the brakes to feel it move like crazy.

Oops. I guess it loads the pictures in the opposite order that they're uploaded. Oh well I'm on dial-up so you'll just have to look at the pics bottom to top. :D
