Flashback: October 2008 - Autumn in New England

I recently had to dig through hundreds of picture folders, trying to find a specific shot, and was immediately caught up on Memory Lane. I've been focusing a lot on food on the blog lately, and will really be focusing on food in November, so I'm going to post a flashback entry of a big road trip I took two years ago. Specifically, since it's timely, some time we spent in Connecticut and upstate New York.

First up, a visit to Pumpkin Town in East Hampton, CT. We saw a commercial for this place while visiting my grandparents and thought it looked like a cheesy good time. It was.

A slew of other gourd-geous characters.












From Connecticut, we made our way through upstate New York, hoping to enjoy a lot of peak fall foliage.

Prospect Mountain










And for our final hurrah in New York: Niagara Falls (the US side only because I didn't have a passport yet).



BLACK SQUIRREL!!!


I'm gettin' misty over here!




This concludes the autumny, New Englandy flashback. I may post a couple more of these before Vegan MoFo starts (less than a week to go!).
