As the school year wraps up and summer begins in earnest, today’s photo offers a classic Eastern Shore scene: a boy, a dog, a river, and a fishing pole. The photograph is labeled “Pearce, Mike fishing,” but does not indicate the location (or the dog’s name).

Pretty sure it’s the pier at Chester River Yacht and County Club. Slight view of the roof of the club house in the background. I’d say picture is circa 1953-4. Things have changed so much since then.
