2013 The Eastside Story, Day 22: From Anne’s Land to Charlotte’s
Under cloudy skies and intermittent rain we’ve moved from
Anne’s land to Charlotte’s. The west coast of the Island has such a different
feel; less living with the tourists more visiting on the Island. There was a
quick stop in Summerside before looking for a spot to photograph the bridge.
The sky was heavy
with cloud and misty rain and the bridge just wasn’t very photogenic today –
perhaps tomorrow she’ll look better. (After 23 days on the road, I know how
she feels.)
Tonight the campsite is in Cornwall. It’s a familiar
campground filled with campfire smoke and with memories … memories of camping
with my family …. memories of a skunk commandeering a bag of cheezies, holding
me hostage in the tent, and memories of squirrels determined to chew their way
through motorcycle luggage.
It has stopped raining and there’s a promise of
sunshine for the morning.

It is nice you were able to get a picture of the V-Star with the bridge in the background.
ReplyDeleteHard to believe you have been on the road over 3 weeks now.
Imagine, being on the road for three weeks and still being in my backyard (so to speak.) It's not the first time the VStar has posed with the bridge.
DeleteI like the bridge the way it is, weather and all.
ReplyDeleteHope the weather improves though as you continue your trip.
Sonja, the weather's looking good for ... after we leave ;0)
DeleteOnce again, thanks for the photos that I wished I'd have taken. Kodachrome and its processing was expensive for a guy with my poor work habits way back when.
ReplyDeleteThese have more than a thousand words for me.
You're welcome, anytime Coop. I much prefer looking a pictures myself.
DeleteSuch a pretty place, rain or not! So peaceful...
ReplyDeleteDeb the Island has it's own pace, if you get out of the tourist areas...but even the touristy areas are lovely for a day or so.
