Saturday Photo Hunt - The Theme is "Original"



There are 3 bridges to the island where I live. This bridge is the original bridge from the east side. In the old days they took the ferry boat.
I took this photo from our little boat.
Happy Weekend

Saturday Photo Hunt - The Theme is "Plastic"


Hi folks!
I'm back. Hope you all had a great summer.
While out in my little boat, I found this
