when: July 14, 2005 where: Marion Station, Maryland, USA what: Tower Surfing

© Rob Crimmins, Felton, Delaware, USA This week we installed three antennas on a 340’ foot, free standing tower in Marion Station, MD, behind an elementary school. Marion Station is a town of fewer that two-thousand residents at the extreme southern end of Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Pocomoke Sound is a few miles south and Tangier Sound is to the west and north. It’s a completely unpretentious place. The homes are plain and generally pleasing although a few are well worn. Like the entire Eastern Shore the terrain is utterly flat, but there is more forest here than elsewhere. It’s pretty country. In 1964, when I was seven, our family went to the World’s Fair in New York. Going to New York City was an adventure in itself but that was just one of many aspects of that trip I still bring to mind when I want to enjoy a pleasant memory.
