Daily Doodle: Essex Ferry Dock

“What comes to mind when you think of Essex, NY?” We asked this question at our Depot Theatre performance last month, and above you can see one of the awesome doodles we received in reply!

Ferry Dock Doodle

This doodle shows a car pulling up to the booth at the Essex ferry dock. It looks as if it might be towing a small boat behind. Two ducks are swimming alongside the ferry dock, an everpresent pleasure of waiting for the Essex-Charlotte car-ferry during the spring, summer and fall. And even beyond (when the ice forms late… or not at all!)

We’d love to see you answer our question too. “What comes to mind when you think of Essex, NY?” Don’t overthink it. Just doodle…

Submit your Essex doodles and we’ll share them with the community.
