The Bridge at Chestertown, MD


Chestertown, Maryland, is one of the nicest little towns we have ever visited. So much history is there in addition to the Chester River. It you look closely, you will see the controller’s house where he raises and lowers the middle span so the larger boats can go through. I have never been there when it was open, but maybe one of these day we will get to see it happen.

  2. Is this Cheasapeake Bay? That is the only stretch of water that I know and think to be over that way somewheres. I love the salty sense your series of images convey.

  3. Took my oldest to Chestertown on a college visit many years ago. I had secretly hoped he might choose WC just so I would have lots of visits to that lovely little town. No Luck.

  5. Good shots Genie. I think the portrait oriented photo and the last are the best.

  6. Very nice shots! We travel by road over a lift bridge at least a couple of times a week (supermarket route) -- once I was the first in line when the light came on and the bridge went up -- sure was glad I didn't miss THAT red light!

  8. Nice shots.
    I really like the last one - especially that house (?) behind the boat with the large widows walk.
