I AM TRYING TO DO A SKY REPLACEMENT ON A PICTURE OF A COVERED BRIDGE. THE TUTORIAL FOR SKY REPLACE WORKS OK FOR THE SKY ABOVE THE ROF BUT THE BRIDGE HAS LARGE WINDOWS IN IT THAT ARENT  INCLUDED IN THE MASK, SO THEY REMAIN WHITE. TH UPPER BRANCHES OF THE TREE ARE ALSO NOT RIGHT. ANYONE KNOW HOW TO REMEDY THIS?

Gosh please no caps lock :D  hopefully your keyboard is working correctly.

Anyways, looks like you're lucky; the brightness of the sky paired with the dynamic range of your camera means that the sky around that sections is almost a pure white. 

If all of the sky is white, or near white, you may want to just do the method I show in the video-- in this situation it may work perfectly. The Refine edge step that I show in the video should also solve the strange look around the tree (and hopefully the glow around the bridge). If not, you can use the brush within the Refine tool to tell it to work on the selection extra around that area.

Take a look at this video, its not technically a sky replacement tutorial but a sky replacement was used to show what can be achieved with blend ranges:
