    Really like St Michaels, easy town to use electric bikes in. Today we are exploring, found a walking/bike trail with a covered bridge, lots of flowering trees here in Maryland. One is the Crap Myrtle they line the paths and streets with their beautiful blooms. Found the Carpenter street saloon for lunch, built in 1887.
