We Love Connecticut Too!!

This past weekend we visited oldest son Scott who lives in Connecticut.
 
Here is the view at Katie's parent's cottage in Branford,
a hot spot for boating and kayaking.
 
Kayaking is on my bucket list, but we didn't go on this day.

Most of them were parked,
 
a few were resting on the beach.
I found one piece of sea glass and a couple pretty shells.

We visited with Scott, Katie, Abby and Katie's parents on Saturday!
We had an amazing meal at The Beachhead
which had a breathtaking view of the Long Island Sound.

I had a warm, New England Lobster Roll,
the hubs had Fried Shrimp.

I forgot to take pictures but all of the dishes were delicious.

I did not take any people pictures, Scott does not love the camera...

 but here's a cute one of Scott & Katie together in August,
at our house, enjoying the pool. I don't think I ever shared this!

Scott is a handsome guy! He and Katie make a good looking couple.

The water and sky look gorgeous! It looks like a peaceful place to spend some time.

Kayaking is on my bucket list, too. I've never been.

Happy duo.
I love kayaking. Don't have the guts to take a camera along though...I've tilted...er..rolled a few too many times.

i always take me camera in the kayak (when the hubby & i adventure out) ... love it ... always have a bag to keep it dry ... it is fun trying to keep the kayak steady when i snap away ... find it fun trying. ( :

You both look very happy.

Karen said...

Oh what a lovely place! They make a cute couple!
I love to kayak, but with the MS, it's safer to use a sit atop kayak. So if you ever want to try it, I would suggest you use that kind.

The colourful kayaks add such beauty to these pictures.

Nancy said...

Hmm, I'd like to see you in a kayak. :) Gorgeous photos and Scott looks very much like his old man. :)

Just the bright colors of the kayaks is pretty to look at! Wow...what a lovely area that is.

How funny that your son doesn't like photos...go figure.

Shots of boats and sea glasses looks good

Hi Debbie Lovely to see your happy family. The other shots have so vibrant colours and I love the way you put the canoes in the front of no 2

The kayaks are so pretty because they're all different colors... It looks like so much fun, but I'm afraid of tipping...

Lisa @ Two Bears Farm said...

What fun. I hope you get to kayak soon.

Unknown said...

The sky looks so bright and beautiful, I really need to get a few photography lessons from you one of these days! And is odd that I'm now craving a lobster roll at 8:00 AM? May have to head to the Shore Fresh Seafood Market for dinner tonight!

Kayaking might be fun but only if I'm wearing a life-jacket. I can't swim. Love how colorful they all were. Sounds like you had a great time.

LeAnn said...

Beautiful pictures of the area. I do hope sometime we can travel out to the East Coast. I especially enjoyed the picture of your children.
