Each month, Down East editors select our favorite response to “Where in Maine?” Here is our favorite letter from October’s photo.

When I was very little, four or five years old, maybe even younger, I first saw the Somesville Bridge. Back then, I didn’t take to it right away. Over the years, it’s become something of a friend. Since my family visits Mount Desert Island quite frequently, I am lucky to see it often and I love it. It is one of my favorite features because it becomes one with the seasons.
