The bridge connecting these two islands was made of Hornbeam wood. It was built by Captain Leander Lavallee back in the 1920's. Leander was Captain Ed Lavallee's father, Ed was Captain of the Mount and also the Mail Boat. It has stood the trials of time until it was replaced a few years ago. "Wishing Bridge".
