Southford Falls
These are some views from Southford Falls in Southbury, Connecticut. This was once the site of the Diamond Match Company. The fire tower there is much shorter than the one at Woodbury's Orenaug Park, but it sported some interesting graffiti, like the tower in Woodbury. I love when the climb is worth it. We saw the barn above from the top of the tower. The tree in the top shot had a healed-over heart tattoo from many a year ago.

  33. The flow of the water was so great. It is so free. Those small towers are so much fun, if they are in good condition that is.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Sandy, how lovely it all is. I have always wanted to go to the place beyond... and in your post it is the place behind the water that calls out to me; I would love to climb in behind them into the moist cavern and look out through the curtain os falling water.
