Way back when we were in NH, still living the relaxed vacation life.

WILD LIFE!!!

Wash the paws.

Frustrated, wondering what we are trudging so far for…

Around the corner…

A pretty great lunch spot.

The descent.

Drying off.

The reward.

Tower climbing, crustacean eating

Home.

Milan Hill State Park.

Finding things dropped on purpose.

Grandparenting.

The state park was closed for a little while and when they eventually reopened it they made it more camper friendly. This is one of 4 Yurts they constructed along with 6 (?) campsites with platforms for tents.

Free continental breakfast.

Back at the compound, checking out Nina and Jaspers pond.

A “natural break” at the playground where I went to elementary school.

Jaycee!

Ice cream with no wipes = photo killer.

Later, trapping wild animals.

Dinner.

It was good to be home.

Packing in up for NH, in the rain.

No rain in New Haven.

Chilling, Eating, Friends Comments Off on Friday night send off with the Savas’

If it’s Friday night, and it works out, we are with the Savas’ trying to eat straight off the grill.

Fresh tats.

(Foreshadowing)

Savannah and Derby’s grandma Cathey was celebrating a birthday, with a little rain.

It was an early night for us, we were off to NH the next morning for a week long vacation.

Last Sunday, waking up at Uncle Bugs’ house.

Jumping around in the room Uncle Bugs uses to showcase his collection of black boots.

An improvised foot stool is just as good as a regular foot stool.

Those black helicopters we weren’t joking about.

Emmett and Lisa drove out with Declan and Caitlin to hang out with us.

“Salad”

Caitlin!

Feeding the rays.

Not interested anymore.

Everyone look at this gross hat.

Just kidding, they were looking at this gross fish.

This is what it looks like when you fall into the shark tank.

Outside watching a seal show.

More gross Long Island aquatic life.

The butterfly exhibit.

You know those guys!

Uncle Emmett and some freeloaders.

This pretty much sums it up.

In the bird room.

Back at Uncle Bugs’ place for dinner and pie.

I took this when Noah and I were ready to go.

Thanks again for the great weekend Uncle Bugs!
