Entering the Groton/Deep River areas of Connecticut, we found a "typical" pristine New England church nearby a green town square. Today we plan on staying near a longtime friend of Heather and family...
Bob should move and run this cafe, eh?
A cute house near Heather's former brother-in-law's (Pete Corcoran's) home in Deep River, Connecticut.
Someone is wound-up and very excited to take another walk today...Mom took him for a 3-miler earlier... this is Pete and Julia's son, Joey, and he is one fun character........"ALL BOY!"
Entering the bridge on our beautiful walk...
I was informed that these are "schwans."
Pete picked up this little hitchhiker and gave him a "lift."
After crossing a long bridge across the "Sound," we head forward (with little Joe in the Radio Flyer) toward a pretty neighborhood.
This is a stately home in a very well-to-do neighborhood along a lush golf course by the Long Island Sound where the 4 of us took our walk. Viewing this home from a direct, frontal view, it is quite lovely!
This view caught my eye...a lovely home was on the right, a golf course tee-box directly behind me, and the flowers in the foreground that frame this lighthouse nicely.
We have a new friend...he calls us "Mr. Bob" and "Miss Heather" (or on occasion, "Miss Sarah").
Mommy had just bought him two horseys and a triceratops, and Joey brings them EVERYWHERE! He is feeding the dinosaur some yummy rocks and letting the horse stretch his tired legs.
This is to read if you desire...really different types of food fare but WARNING: IT WILL MAKE YOU SALIVATE!
A father-son moment.
The "lobster hot dog shack" features 14 types of lobster hot dogs alone, as well as other "well-dressed" dogs such as these )called "The Atom Bomb," are unique andd DELICIOUS! We wish there was one in Phoenix. The girl that works the shack says unless you're not very hungry, you'll need at least two lobster dogs (at $14/each)...maybe more!
Joey needs a quick break during dinner...it's GREAT to be a boy!
The local harbor along Long Island Sound in Connecticut where we ended our 3-mile stroll...
How big is JOEY?...SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (He's "freee")
Gotta get a quick BLOG in for the folks back home...then we're gonna hang out with Pete and family at their home tonight before leaving for Pennsylvania tomorrow.
Julia, Pete's wife, just got home from work and we got a nice pic of their family in the kitchen. Heather and Joey had a GREAT time running around and around the entire downstairs ('til we got dizzy), and playing hide-and-seek. There are LOTS of nooks and crannys in this house that are TERRIFIC hiding places to jump out and make Joey let out blood-curdling screams!! :>0 Bob and I really enjoyed sitting out back on their porch this evening and visiting with them. Thanks to both of you for your wonderful hospitality (AND directions around the area)! Tomorrow we have plans to meet Pete and Joey for breakfast at the "Whistle Stop Cafe"...sound familiar???
