Tripping on Travel: Pumpkin Hill Rd, Ashford, CT

In this video, the footage picks up where it left off on Pumpkin Hill Rd in Chaplin. When, according to the map I used, I crossed Ashford's town line. My route, and the road, end at Rt 44. Ashford's greatest claim to fame may be actor Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, located off of Rt 44. He was reportedly a seasonal resident of Ashford at some time prior to his death in 2008. Outside of that, I can tell you the town was incorporated in 1714. And it's resident population is smaller than many others in Connecticut. Recognizing how bleak Pumpkin Hill Rd looks in the footage in early March, I converted maybe 1 min of footage to black and white temporarily, and then brought back the color. Some viewers may find it a more appealing environment when they see the contrast between B&W and color.
