In this week’s Flashback Photo we share an iconic Eastern Shore scene. The wooden skiffs lined up at the dock on a placid creek are instantly recognizable to those who have spent time on the area’s rivers and creeks. Gaze at the image for a few minutes and you wouldn’t be surprised to see a heron gliding in to the reeds across the water, or the winglike fin of a skate cutting through the surface of the water. As always, if you recognize any of these boats, please let us know in the comments or at [email protected].
