Friday Bonus
When I'm on the road I'm
always on the lookout for interesting transportation items. I thought I'd share
some of them as Friday Bonuses.
One of my favorite bridges
is not some massive structure spanning a river. It's found in Ogunquit, Maine.
The Perkins Cove drawbridge is not just the only pedestrian-only drawbridge
I've ever seen, it's the only drawbridge I'm aware of that anyone can operate.
When a boat blows its horn, you push a button that raises the bridge.
