The bridge was replaced by a ferry to transport folks/cars across the gap and I couldn't help telling my wife about Teddy's cowardly behavior at that spot so many years ago. Several folks overheard and I got some nasty looks - smiled back at them and asked if I had got the story wrong and they wouldn't meet my eye after that.
“...smiled back at them and asked if I had got the story wrong...”
Good for you!
That's not where the bridge was. Its a few miles down the Road after you take the ferry. It was across Dykes pond and crossed over to the beach still popular. As I recall it had an air pump so people could let air out and drive the beach, then refill at bridge.
