This is the original London Bridge, now in Arizona.
During a recent RV/Camping trip to the western part of our great country, I found myself in Lake Havasu, Arizona. Some of you may know the story of the London Bridge by way of a song when we were children. The title of the song is: London Bridge is Falling down. I took the photo below while in Lake Havasu.
The London Bridge was built in the 1830’s and formerly spanned the River Thames in London, England. In 1967, it was purchased from the city of London by Robert P. McCulloch. * It was then dismantled and shipped to Arizona where it was reassembled over Lake Havasu.

* Robert Paxton McCulloch (May 11, 1911 – February 25, 1977) was an American entrepreneur from Missouri, best known for McCulloch chainsaws and purchasing the “New” London Bridge, which he moved to one of the cities he founded, Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
