Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.

With winter here a lot of us are missing the time we spend in the great outdoors. But a little cold weather and snow doesn’t mean we must abandon all time outside! In fact, things are just getting good out here. There are a lot of things in the Granite State that can be enjoyed year-round and a walk across this bridge is one of them.
New Hampshire has beautiful covered bridges in every corner of the state. And while some are simply wonderful to look at, others have fun little secrets that cause visitors to linger just a little bit longer.
The Meriden Covered Bridge in Plainfield can be found a mile northwest of NH Route 120 in Meriden Village. It's on Colby Hill Road spanning Blood Brook.
You may have heard it called the Mill Bridge, as it sits near the site of the former Kimball's Mill dam. It was built in 1880 by James Tasker who did the job for a stunningly small $465.
And best of all? It's easy to access! There are plenty of waterfalls in New Hampshire, but we love that this one requires no hiking and includes some wonderful local history.
