Spring Time Update

WOW it's been a long time since I've posted anything on this site and I do have a lot of updates.   Since the last time we talked I have accepted a new job and moved back to the cold wintery north... Yup, Connecticut!  I never thought I would make the move back to this part of the world, however a good friend of mine wanted to me work for him and his company and it took him a whole year to convince me to make the move.   I've been here since last August and well it was the winter from hell, of course.

I survied the cold weather and now I'm getting ready for the spring weather to start.  The area where I live is very nice, lots of parks and really old homes.  I like being able to drive the big city (New York) as its only about an hour away.  Mom is now just two hours away and Michael and I are able to do a lot of sight seeing.  There are so many places that I saw as a kid but never appreciated so now I get to relive all those places again and make new memories.

The picture above was from our recent trip to Essex's a small town in our new state.  The houses are so old... mid to late 1800's.  It was a great little place, however I still want to go back once everything turns green and its much warmer. 

The picture above is from across the other side of the river in my new home town.  The area is full of walking trails and is very quaint.   The picture below is in the next town (Derby) this is one of the walking trails and its nice to have some nature so close to home and I did mention that we are only 7 miles from the ocean?!

We also took a trip back to Mystic Seaport which I must say was just as boring as when I went as a child.  The only good thing was that I was able to get some pictures this time. 

Well that's all for now.  Stay tuned for some more interesting trips to come this spring and summer.....
