M
y first Sunday Drive through Brooklin and Sedgwick was an unforgettable
experience for me. The height of Indian summer; wispy clouds floating
in a brilliant blue sky, the sun warm, but not as hot as August,
and the air holding the promise of a cool night.
The more I drove, the more I felt like
I had escaped the present. I expected to hear 40s Swing on the radio,
or to see some perfectly preserved Ford Roadster puttering along
in the other direction. I wouldn’t have been surprised if
I looked down and saw that I was driving my Dad’s ’53
Chevy …
I saw places and views I had never seen
before. I experienced that wonderful sense of time stretching on
forever – with no particular place to go and nothing to do
but drive.
Whaddya say? Let’s hit the road.
From
Blue Hill, head out South Street (Routes 172 & 175) and watch
for the turnoff for Route 175 to Brooklin about 2-1/2 miles south
of town.
Turning left, follow the road past a beautiful cove with a red boathouse
on your left to the Blue Hill Falls bridge over the reversing falls.
