6/03/2009 Outdoor Wednesday #21

This week for Outdoor Wednesday, I am posting photographs taken May 2009, at Comstock Covered Bridge, East Hampton/Colchester, Connecticut.
Pedestrian bridge which spans over the Salmon River.

My husband and I opened these wooden doors. We didn't have to pay a toll nor did we hear the troll nor see the Billy Goat Gruffs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Billy_Goats_Gruff

This is a close-up of the walls.

We took a last look at the bridge.

Fern growing on a hill.


Posted on a tree are rules and regulations for anglers.

Photo taken of the Salmon River. Don't you just love the sound of water? I do.

Joyce, I missed you on Blue Monday, but I'm glad to catch you on Outdoor Wednesday. Those shots are amazing. I love the gates in the first shot. You photographs are eloquent. They speak a language all their own, and I always enjoy them.

Happy Outdoor Wednesday...

XO,

Sheila :-)

Dear Joyce,
What beautiful pictures for Outdoor Wednesday...I love the bridge and the color of the bridge...I have a heart for those old bridges and I loved the texture of the fern on the moss covered rocks.
All of your pictures were amazing

Joyce,

I just learned there is another fabulous Salmon river other than the one in Idaho. The water does sound so peaceful and I love it!
The bridge was impressive and told a story of it's own as did the lone fern in the hill.
It looks like I echoed other's thoughts.

Thanks for sharing and Happy Outdoor Wednesday! Also thanks for your comments and your visits!

Hi Joyce-
That bridge with the gate are amazing! I'd be tempted to explore it too if I saw it.

Joyce,

I love these pictures. The bridge is beautiful and I can almost hear the water crashing over the rocks... I like the fern growing on the wall, it must love the moisture.

Happy Outdoor Wednesday!!
