Four Seasons On Brick Kiln Road: hidden joys of a quiet place in Maryland

Cory Doctorow 4:56 pm Mon Feb 18, 2013

Patrick Costello sez,

Brick Kiln Road in Crisfield in Maryland is one of those quiet places
that you can drive by a thousand times without noticing. The short
stretch of road is home to a small fishing boat harbor, a public beach
and not much else of consequence – but, like most small quiet places
in the world, if you take the time to get to know the place there are
wonders to be found.

Four Seasons on Brick Kiln Road is my humble attempt to capture the
beauty of this small corner of the Chesapeake Bay. The final draft is
being made freely available in the hopes of introducing people to the
natural beauty of one small corner of the Chesapeake Bay.
