Happy Thanksgiving! The Old Comstock Bridge, right off route 16 in East Hampton, Connecticut, is one of New England's old covered bridges. Built in 1791, it spans the narrow, but beautiful, Salmon River, which is actually a great place for trout fishing (go figure). There's a fairly easy walking trail that runs along this section of the river, or you can go just up the road to a large nearby picnic area that also sits right along the banks of the river. It was a bit frosty this Thanksgiving morning, but there was still one lone fisherman out trying his luck, along with a few walkers, and a cyclist who was riding his way through the Salmon River State Forest. This state forest is a great place to enjoy some wilderness without getting too far away from civilization.
