What We Did For the Fourth.

We traveled to Nader and Lauren's weekend abode in Connecticut. It was in Litchfield County along a river with a name. We renamed it Lazy River and floated down it in tubes; just like the lazy river at every water park in America. The beer can you see in the foreground is for a game called Brew-ski, but that's another post.
The house was converted from an old railroad station thing. The field stone foundation wall is nestled up about eight feet from the river's edge. It was picturesque and we really enjoyed their hospitality and patience; our abridged family of four (we left the two dogs and cat at home) is a traveling circus except our circus has no clowns or any proper acts and we have lots more smelly diapers:)
