It was really nice when the bridge was out. The traffic on the island was nearly nothing except for the shuttle vans. It was nearly a ghost town and I loved it that way. The shuttle service and ferry service was a wonderful way to travel and it was all free. There's also about 25 miles of undeveloped beach for camping and fishing. I'll tell ya about the day hubby and I caught 17 different kinds of fish in the surf if ya twist my arm a little.
Joe Sixpack I think, asked when the bridge was reopened. It was open around the first part of October last year.
Anyway, I hope the image produced by spring breakers doesn't stop anyone from visiting any other time of the year.
