Weekend Wanderings!

We had one good day this weekend and we took advantage of the weather and the foliage. We headed  across the Connecticut river and visited a few new places.

Of course I can't resist a cemetery and we found an old one on the way and a large one called Indian Hill. It was on a hill and was a wonderful place to walk around and enjoy the views, as well.

The next stop was Wadsworth Falls. It was a beautiful place and the falls were beautiful. Someone was taking a photo shoot with this woman. She was barefoot and standing at the edge of the falls, not the safest place to be.

We headed to Meriden to visit Castle Graig. You can drive to the top, but it was crowded and slow going since the road was narrow and we had to pull over every so often. Here is a view, looking up at the tower, from the park.

And at the top, views of the surrounding towns and on one side, you can see to the ocean on a clear day.

On the way back, we stopped at another cemetary that had a funeral going on. It had a lot of old stones, but the clouds were covering what was left of the sun, so I couldn't get too many good photos. The row of stones are all from 1863 and 1864, war veterans.

And at home, my neighbor's trees are in full bloom and mine are turning fast. Bill had to work Sunday which was fine, since it was raining. Tomorrow he is taking his day off, so we can enjoy another ride into Ct. This time the falls and castle, since that is the last places to turn. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
