This evening, I biked past a a telescope house (map link), pictured below. It's a distinctive local Chesapeake design from the 17th to early 19th centuries where two and sometimes three sections of the house are added, arrayed from smallest to largest. They were typically built over a number of years. Examples sometime are found in Pennsylvania and New England also.
I rode down to Taylors Island and had planned to include a circuit of the island; however, the road was underwater at the "Becky Phipps" monument (map link) so I turned back toward home.
It was about a 20 mile ride with an average speed of 16.8 mph.
