• What I learned at Oktoberfest… No one can dance while holding a full stein of beer like a German can! #
• Just saw someone pushing a shopping cart through a restaurant. That’s what I call classy. #
• This Hampton Inn has 19 electric outlets in the room. Don’t even need my power strip. Finally a hotel that understands the modern traveler. #
• Was hoping the Merritt Parkway would have colorful Fall foliage today. Instead it had an accident & big traffic jam. You win some/lose some. #

I just posted some photos taken on a weekend in New Haven Connecticut. We stayed in New Haven and made side trips to Mohegan Sun, Foxwoods and Olde Mistick Village. Our room at the Omni had a spectacular view of the Yale University campus.

On the Fourth of July, we stopped at Frank Pepe’s Pizzeria for lunch. They originated New Haven style pizza. That was fun. We also tried to go to Louis Lunch, but they were closed for the holiday, so we didn’t get to taste a burger from the place that allegedly invented the hamburger.

Enjoy the photos right here.

I added several new albums to the photos section of the site. Some of the highlights include the photos from my trip to Mystic Seaport in Connecticut, spring flowers from our yard and a few animals that were spotted in and over our yard. I also threw in a set of fireplace photos that I took during the winter but never got a chance to post until now.

You may also notice that the total number of albums has increased by a few. There’s nothing else new, but decomissioned the Flora and Fauna album and distributed its photos into various albums since it was becoming a dumping ground.
