Connecticut Trip...Part One...










Meggy and I headed out for Connecticut to help celebrate her brother Dan and Kelly’s wedding. Our flights out were smooth sailing. Great trip…nice and chill. The weather was amazing…the fall colors were still hanging around…perfect fireplace weather. Cory and Robin carted us around all weekend and hooked us up with room and board. Thanks guys! Aaaand Maeve…Thanks for letting us take over your room. Aaaaand Enna thanks for letting Maeve stay in her room while we were there. We got to meet their pets Lani and Coconut…I regret to inform you that I have no photos of Coconut the hermit crab. We also got a chance to check out both Dan and Cory's shops...both great spots...next time we are in town we'll have to set aside a little chair time.
Connecticut Trip...Part Two...









I also got to meet Dan, Kelly and Orrin…and Aunt Mary Lou further increasing the amount of Pierce family members I get to check off my list of Pierce family members I need to meet list. Super cool areas…Groton, New London, Montville, Oakdale…Totally dug it. The site for the wedding was amazing! It was a pretty close rival to Uncle Johnny’s place in Montana. Pretty close. The wedding was awesome…super chill…nice spread of food…the bride and groom looked stellar…bonfire…awesome backdrop…what more could you ask for?!
Connecticut Trip...Part Three...









The longer we stayed the warmer the weather got…the last day we were there the weather was awesome! Unfortunately that is when my cold that I found was in full swing. I tried the make the best of it, but it pretty much kicked my butt. We packed up our bags and had breakfast with the Newlyweds…then we picked up Maeve from school and Cory shuttled us up to Rhode Island for our flights home.
Connecticut Trip...Part Four...









Our flights home were pretty funny…at the Rhode Island Airport we ran in to Dan Rubel and family on their way back to Austin…Super Random…We were on the same flight. Then when got on our flight to San Diego and my body double/wrestling sensation Bill Goldberg was on our flight…dude was massive! And a few rows back from him and directly across from our seats was Peninsula YMCA Wild Turkeys soccer phenom Gabe Garzo on his way back from Philly and the Giants/Chargers game. Super random and Super Awesome! The one NOT so awesome note was the chick sitting behind us that had to tell her life story…in every single little detail for about three hours at about eight levels of volume too loud. It was BAD. Really BAD. It pretty much ruined my trip home. I am sooooo glad they don’t allow people to talk on cell phones during flight…that would just absolutely kill it. C’mon high speed trains!
Thanks again for ALL the hospitality guys! We hope to see you all soon! And just in case I didn’t have enough “Awesome’s” in there…Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. Glad to be home…I think Murphy was fairly pleased to see us home too. Thanks for keeping an eye on him while we were gone, Auntie Blair!
