Swinging bridge on KY 49 goes to Jack Evans Pastor of Egypt Christian Church remembers many visits there. Suggests nearby Whippoorwill Hollow Road for another scenic route, with another well maintained swinging bridge and the picturesque Pleasant Valley Christian Church It is late Sunday night and I have just viewed the photo of the swinging bridge which is correctly identified as being in Marion County and is visible from Hwy 49. The beautiful white farm house in the background is the Jack Evans property. I have visited this home many times being entertained royally by the Evans family while preaching in revivals at the Pleasant Valley Christian Church where the family were members. If you want to see a beautiful sight in this same community go back over and take the Whippoorwill Hollow Road and view the picturesque Pleasant Valley Church building. Another excellent swinging bridge in this area is located on the J. D. Ewing farm and it is also visible from Hwy 49.Paul Patton - Paul PattonComments re photo 43937 Scenic Marion Co KY Swinging Bridge near Casey Co line 2012-02-27 04:36:02 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Local History
