“Glimpses into the past are everywhere in Bristol. St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, Linden Place, and Colt Memorial High School loom high above Hope Street. I’ve walked along streets and past homes that are older than the state of Oregon. Standing on the dock, looking out over the harbor from the end of what is known as DeWolf Wharf on Thames Street, it is easy to imagine the long, colorful history of this place.”
