SOUNDS AS WE CROSSED THE BRIDGE:
car engines
students talking
truck horns blowing
tires rolling on the bridge
automobiles riding over bumps
humming of the tires
rattles as the bus crossed bumps
wind coming through the windows
car passing
SOUNDS FROM SANDY POINT STATE PARK:
geese honking loudly
seguls squaking
jack breaks of a truck slowing down on the bridge
jets flying overhead
water swishing on the beach
boats passing by
winds rustling leaves
SIGHTS SEEN FROM THE BRIDGE AND SANDY POINT STATE PARK
toll booths
Magothy River
watermen fishing
cables holding up the bridge
steel, cement, wires on the bridge
bridge workers
Naval Academy
Sandy Point Lighthouse
clammers, oyster boats, freighters coming up the bay (maybe from one
of your countries)
channel markers
buoys
beachy shorline
sailboats
old ferry docks
lights on the bridge to mark lanes
seaguls soaring
geese flying in v-formation
water glistening
trees swaying in the wind
leaves falling
bridge is so long, it looks never ending
SMELLS
exhaust from the trucks and cars
air fresh and clean
fresh water
FEELINGS:
happy and excited
scared of how high the bridge is
bumpy ride
wind blowing in face
air felt damp like rain is coming
