I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I'm not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

I know, right? They're awesome!

I'm just happy not to live in a world with dragonflies any larger. Dragonflies the size of a rat would probably be dangerous for most pets, and by the size of a cat you'd be waking up with a dragonfly eating your arm.

At this scale though they're just awesome. I have some wetland on my property, so it's quite often in the summer, that I'll drop what I'm doing and just wander off after a dragonfly.
