The Dodd's Creek Bridge is a #lenticular #arch - so named because the top and bottom elements are both curved, like a lens. It's a unique design! You can walk over it if you visit #SaladoTX.

Texas' state song is "Texas, Our Texas," which originally included this line: "Largest and grandest, Withstanding ev'ry test." After Alaska became a state, they had to change the line to "Boldest and grandest." #alaskahistory #texashistory #alaska
