It’s August, and so off I went with JJ on our yearly trek to the fabled “Arches”. Lots of water moving through, perhaps the highest volume I have witnessed on these trips, and VERY COLD. Basking in the whole gestalt of the place (and taking a long swim), can do wonders for what ails a soul – it’s just that kind of place. This view is slightly upstream from the swimming hole, which itself is just up from the keystone arch bridge.

There’s a nice description of full moon names here. This view is from the Essex Dock, looking east across the CT River toward Old Lyme. The tide is coming in, right to left.

A bit of the back story of this bridge, built without any mortar circa 1853, can be found on the Historical Society of Cheshire County‘s site here.

A cool wind blowing in from the northwest, the midday play of light in the forest and the hypnotic sound of the rushing water: it was easy to spend the greater part of an hour here, all the while on the lookout for an “essence of stream” photograph. This was the one I liked the best, which coincidentally was the view that prompted the stop to begin with.
