Madison county is in Iowa--there are sev covered bridges there (near Winterset Iowa)--includeing the one where the movie was filmed (stared Clint Eastwood)
If you havent read the book--or seen the movie--its a n off beat love story about a man photographing the old bridges & a farm wife he meets while doing so.
Theres an extra twist in our family--my oldest daughter got married on that bridge. Many couples do now. My daughter & her honey had been together many yrs but never offically got married. At the time of the wedding--they had children old enough to serve as attendents for the cereamony !! There was a reception in Winterset --in a big park after the wedding.
Winterset Iowa by the way is also the birthplace of John Wayne--famous movie actor.
So theres my Valentine story sort of . However in Iowa you dont plan a wedding there in winter!!
My daughters wedding was in April 16 yrs ago.
