Take me to the bridge was a refrain used by the late Godfather of Soul James Brown. I know everybody knows the hits the Godfather left us. "Please, please, please", "Papa got a brand new bag", I'm black and I'm proud", "It's a man's world","Mama come here quick, bring me dat lickin stick", " Bewildered", "Hot pants", and the list goes on. I miss the Godfather. Anyway, above is the Burlington-Bristol Bridge which is a two lane bridge connecting Burlington NJ and Bristol PA. My first fulltime newspaper job was at the Burlington County Times in Willingboro NJ not many miles from bridge. Back then, it cost 5 cents to use the bridge. Now, it's 25. The nice thing about Burlington is the park alone the river. Fisherman such as myself can fish right off the sidewalk. In fact, I fished until sunset to make picture. No, I didn't catch anything. Look, I go to fish and if I don't catch anything I still fished. This is my answer when going home empty-handed.
