It was a gorgeous morning out here in the Constitution State, and my sister and I dutifully set out before the sun crested the horizon, but I didn’t get a lot of pictures to show for it.

My good luck continued overnight as the wet weather moved out, and the skies were clear, if cool, this morning, so I headed down to the Farmington Canal Trail, which I often visit whenContinue reading “Lightning strikes twice, but in a good way…”
