I was across the way on the Shepardson Hollow Side about the same time as you were taking your photos Judi and this is what I got.  As you can see, the bridge is almost invisible.

The road is now impassable in both directions from our house! Shepardson Hollow and River Rd intersection now has water also.

We now have water creeping up our driveway so we moved our cars, we may be sleeping up at the salvage yard in a junk car tonight! Right now there is us and our neighbors that we checked in on surrounded by rising water. I never would have imagined this much water. I think we have another 1927 flood situation with more rain coming perhaps.

Judi,,,if that's your drive way I wish you the best.  Don't take any chances, water is powerful. 
That driveway looks like a boat launch.
