We were able to drive to Guilford, CT on Saturday and see Laurie and Kay! They were down from Nova Scotia to see Kay's family. I wish, wish, wish I had taken pictures of Kay's wonderful family, Jan, Joe, Matthew, Richard, and Christine. Kay and Laurie were great tour guides and I fell in love with Kay's CT. We ate New England clam chowder, baked cod called scrod, orecchiette lobster,
and in a word, excellent!

This is Kay's childhood front yard. Ahhh.

Guilford is a beautiful town with a village green surrounded by several churches,
town hall, library, and war memorials. Many New England towns have a village green.

Ferry ride around the Thimble Islands. Amazing what folks build on them. |
