Cresent Beach Day Pot luck dinner and mushroom talk

Last Saturday Jeff and I, Tammy and Joe went to Crescent beach day....My sister Lori and family, and brother John and Barbara are members of this beach.

We went to the craft fest where my brother in law Attillio was selling his hand made birdhouses, my sister in law, Barbara was selling her clay figurines and niece Tara was offering facials. The rain closed the booths down early...but luckily it cleared later in the day for the Pot luck.

sunday we went to Connecticut College to look at mushrooms and learn a bit about the ones that grow here on the east coast.

STIR CRAZY

Howdy all,
Yesterday we traveled from about eight and drove till around 6pm...even though it was allot of driving...it wasn't so bad for me, the crazed driver let me have a leisurely breakfast, I cut up vegetables for snacking and ed and straightened Homey before we left at 8. We also had a nice lunch stop ...where the crazed driver took a nap....haa...i was able to relax and eat a yummy egg salad sandwich without being rushed.

We drove till after dark and stayed overnight at Walmart...had a bad meal at a Texas Road house.....should have gone to McDonalds in Walmart instead.

So this morning the crazed driver leaves at 5am....drives a half hour to the flying j for gas....and propane...I had to get out of my jammies and wait outside while they filled the homey with propane....it was a cold morning. burrr
So here we are on route 10 driving thru New Mexico....nope just crossed the border into Arizona...two hours and 45 minutes to go....yippee
We will stay at one of our favorite parks...Catalina State Park. Click on this link to read about it.
We will watch the Patriots game with Steve and Lena tonight.

OH to walk the earth again....get me outta here....

I'M STIR CRAZY

Stir crazy (condition), a mental condition experienced by prisoners

Help Me I am with a crazed Driver......

Ok...two days have gone by ...we had 2100 miles to drive to Tucson
the first day the crazed driver drove 510 miles ....the second day he woke up at three thirty and decided he was ready to go...ughhh....and drove another 600 miles...HELP....

Last night I said I had things to do before we left in the morning...So we didn't leave till after 8am thank goodness. I cant help but get grumpy....It is too long for me.... I cant stand it...I would prefer around 300 miles to 400 a day max. ..stop early and go for a nice walk, then make dinner and relax.
But with the crazed driver...we just go go till i get madder than a hatter......You would think he would learn by know not to get me mad.....ha ha....I guess he doesn't care....he would rather drive and drive....I think he needs a new job..... Truck driver.....
"I think today will be a shorter drive day"....says the cRazed driver..

We will see....as of this moment we have 782 miles to go....
I try to keep busy on the computer or watching a show on tv...doing some reading...but its not the same as being parked doing these things...its draining i tell you....draining...DRAINING
help i am being drained.....somebody find the stopper...i am going going....nuts..

whoops here i am....again..
Thought I was a goner....

ok forget i said anything

Mushroom Festival at the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center in Mystic, CT.

Mushroom Festival

This was a fun event. The cost seemed a little steep to get in 15 dollars per person, but we were given coupons to buy food. Nice mushroom dishes to choose from. There was music, and mushroom ID tables, books, mushrooms to buy and mushroom walks. No mushrooms on the walk...tooo dry.
I sure miss picking mushrooms this time of year. I will look around here and see what I can find, after a few days of rain.
