NOT burning bridges

Kemmer's hat admires the bridge

 Kemmer came up for a few days and we did our usual go out to a new oriental restaurant for a holiday dinner trip. We thought we knew where it was, but were not finding it. Carrie called them and when I heard "next to the post office" I didn't need any further directions. For some reason. The restaurant turned out to be mediocre, so we'll not be back again.

 Afterward we went to see our first covered bridge since moving to Maine. Babbs Bridge is over the Presumpscot River and judging from the graffiti, is quite popular. To one side are a couple of ropes and a launch platform.

 The Google Satellite view of the bridge showed a couple of kayaks, and Carrie exclaimed "Kayakers waiting to dive for quarters!" We were disappointed we didn't see any waiting for us. But heartened that one showed up as we were leaving, albeit too late for us to toss quarters.

A couple keen on photography
Will Carrie swing into the water?
