"...its about the journey, not the destination..."

Old bridge on the road from Millington to Chestertown.
     The Alaska trip is over. I'm still having trouble processing all that I saw, and all the people that I met. I guess this will take some time. MEANWHILE... riding the BMW has become second nature, almost like it is a part of me. BUT... I was "hungry" to take the Honda ST1100 out for a ride, so...up at 6:15 this morning, in the garage by 6:40, on the road by 6:45. I have developed a habit of going to Twinny's in Galena Maryland for breakfast on Saturday mornings, so that is where I went. There are several back roads to Elkton Maryland from here. Once in Elkton I rode down MD 213 past Cecilton, to Galena. GREAT breakfast (3 egg ham and cheese omelette, two local sausage patties, one piece of rye toast).


                                 
                          This is Woodland Beach on the Delaware River. The land you see across the river is New Jersey
     After breakfast I took a nice ride down route 9 in Delaware, which goes through the wetlands along the Delaware river.
"Downtown" Millington on a sleepy Saturday morning.
     Then I decided to ride over to Chestertown Maryland, which has a big farmers market on Saturday's. My route took me through the sleepy town of Millington Maryland. Then across US 301 to Chestertown.



     Chestertown was hoppin'! I rode through town to the water, took some pictures there (including some Geese!), then back past the farmer's market for some pictures.

Busy downtown Chestertown during a Saturday farmer's market.
     From there a nice ride through Maryland farmland to Galena, then up to Elkton and then home. A really nice ride for a Saturday morning, home by 12:30!

Farmer's market in Chestertown MD, which takes place around the fountain in the city park.
