As a native of this area we have enjoyed stopping and waiting as the swingspan opens and lets the boat traffic pass. I Have been able to get out of the truck walk around and " smell the roses " heck I've even seen people throw out a line while they wait. Swingspans and Drawbridges will soon be a things of the past , most people don't even remember that there was once a swing up at Coinjock . Time and Tide march on…
I agree Steve! Talking to the Tender and waiting for the bridge to open was all part of the journey. “Those were the days!”
