🎥 I used to hide on the floor of the Oldsmobile every time we crossed the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Today marks 73 years since it opened—and Historic Kent Island hasn’t been the same since. Ferries vanished. Farmland disappeared. My hometown split in two. Some call it progress. Others say it broke the soul of this island. 👉 Watch the walk. It’s personal, historical, and true. 👇 If you remember the old Kent Island, drop a comment. #baybridge #kentislandhappenings #mymorningwalk #marylandhistory #
