CONNECTICUT VISITS

I guess if we had to say where home is for us, it would be Massachusetts.  I have only one sibling, my brother Ken, who lives in Connecticut and we have family in the Springfield area.  Of course, our daughter Christi is living in Montreal and our son Daniel in Quebec.  We found that we enjoy the TT park in Moody Beach Maine and use that park as our home base during the summer months.

We took a very different route "home" this time from Yuma.  You can go to my past posts to see the route we took north instead of our typical southern route and then up the east coast.  My hubby planned the route carefully and avoided snow but we did have quite a bit of cold and rain.  However, we visited new places and it was both fun and interesting.

On our way to my brother's house, we stopped at our friends, George & Kate Reale's new home near Lake Candlewood.  We hadn't seen them in years and it was a very nice visit.  Fortunately, we were able to park in front of their house for a night and joined them for a lovely dinner.  It was fun catching up on each other's lives and we talked about perhaps getting together for a cruise sometime in the future.

From the Reale's it was just over an hour to get to my brother's house where we're planning on staying a few nights.  Last night we enjoyed a "buddha bowl" and chatted around the fire for some good conversation.  I so much love to spend time with my baby brother and his wife Kathleen. Spring is in full bloom here and their yard looks beautiful.

an energizer bunny and just keeps on going

Thanks for stopping in to say hi.
