This is the second post this month on bridges seen from Brooklyn Bridge Park. The first photograph has a sky replacement. And in the last one I added a sky and light rays.
I enjoyed Chincoteague-step-through-time-tours led by Cindy Faith so much I wanted to hear more. So we paid a visit to the Captain Timothy Hill’s House. Cindy is a docent there. We learned how the house was saved and moved. If there is a fire in the wooden chimney, they run out quickly. They pull on ropes attached to the chimney to get it away from the house.
Cindy told us one of the family’s stories. It was about a young girl, around 14 years old, who was much loved by them. The girl’s boyfriend took a job on a ship and sailed away for a while. Then he came back to town. He found out that the young girl was going to a dance with another boy. The jealous ex-boyfriend shot her and her mother. She was up all night attending to her wounded mother. The young girl seemed OK and only had a minor wound. Sometime during the night, the young girl passed away. Later her ex-boyfriend shot himself.
The little theater was showing “Before the Lighthouse.” Marc and I are reflected in the door. There are hoof prints of the famous Misty of Chincoteague in front of the cinema. Across the street, not far from the movie theater, is the Chincoteague Island Library.
