The first stop was a visit with Mom at The Conv. Hospital. She's 93 and recovering from a hip replacement.

Sister Patty hams it up with Mom.

Our site was another free one at Mom's house. Camping is cheap if you have a lot of family to visit.

And then we had a good old fashioned backyard picnic. Skip & Andy joined us.

And this is the 2nd main reason we came to CT. Meet Nathanial, 3 1/2 months and grandson #1.

They even let me hold him if I promised not to break him.

And Mykey fed him.

Then she fed him some more. The boy will be as big as Grandpa in no time if she keeps this up.

That's Tracy the mother. I guess she doesn't know Mykey has been feeding him all day.

Now doesn't he look "all full up."

Just hanging around on the deck.

And here we are again.Do we look like we did in '58?

Next stop, Syd & Kathleen's in Guilford. Barely fit on that campsite.

Happy Hour on the patio. Thanks to the timed shutter on the Casio, I got in it, too.
syd-grls_sm.jpg 3.77 K
Spent a little time on the beach in front of their house. That's Long Island Sound in the background.

And no album would be complete without a picture of Syd's tree. Sure makes the motorhome look small.
syd-wait_sm.jpg 4.39 K
Syd was the most gracious host. Not only because he waited on us, but . . .
b-s-corn_sm.jpg 3.58 K
. . . he also served my favorite, Butter & Sugar Corn. (He also did a great swordfish on the grill.)
budfran_sm.jpg 4.20 K
Here we are, 1400 miles from home, and going to lunch with are good friends from back home, Bud & Fran Stringer.
And this is where the picture of my son Bob would go if I had one. (A picture, I have the son.) I can't believe all those I took and I can't find one of him. Guess I'll have to go back up to CT. But you will get to see him when I get the llama farm pictures up.
