Hmm...we thought the kids would like the pool, so why are the adults in the pool and the kids not? Moses and I were chillin' our ankles, Naomi and Owen were happy to throw the toys in. They did go in later.
East Coast Wrap up.
After our time in Boston we went up to New Hampshire to see Moses and Rebecca and the two cutest kids in all of New England. Rich and Moses grew up together in Hingham. Food, talking, trip to the beach, picking veggies and blueberries in the garden, it was a blast.
Then, off to see Craig and Lisa on the farm.
We were a little lazy about photos on this trip, but here is Yankee Village - actually Old Sturbridge Village, but I prefer Yankee Village. I'm a sucker for the living history stuff and the buildings at Old Sturbridge are great.
Favorite New York activities: A bike ride with Naomi, we went out to Orchard Beach, about 45 miles round trip. The guy in the bike rental store was a bit shocked, I don't think his rental bikes ever went further then Central Park before. Blue Pig Ice Cream in Brooklyn, the Doughnut Plant, and the Tenement museum in the Lower East Side. Yum, yum, and wow.
Right after New York we stayed with Jon and Rachael. Because, you know, getting married isn't enough to think about - let's throw some houseguests in the mix the week before. They were wonderful to have us stay and we are so happy for them. Their wedding was the reason for the entire east coast trip, expanding it to three weeks to see all our friends was just another benefit of being un-employed.
Hopped over to the Hartford area next to see Michelle and Alan, who have just moved from Memphis to Conn. How lazy were we with photos? Not one photo of Michelle and Alan or their little dog, Scout. We went tubing on the Farmington River, Alan took the day off work but Michelle couldn't. We told her it was no fun, but we lied. It was great. A really hot day and nothing to do but float down the river with your butt in cold water. Perfect. Again, digging the un-employment.
