On July 30, 2006, Eva Heintzelman (my college roommate), Dave, and I drove to Cornwall, CT, to kayak the Housatonic River. We drove through sections of Connecticut that I didn't realize existed... through old historic-looking colonial towns and a Fair in Goshen, CT. Yeah, one of those small hick town fairs where you git a blue ribbon fer havin' the purtiest cow at the fair... It was an interesting drive.
We ended up kayaking through 10 miles of the river (oh, my aching shoulders!) with some rapids making life interesting (Dave totally flipped over after trying something fairly technical in the first few hundred yards)...
It was beautiful, HOT, and dang, we were lucky we didn't get caught in any lightning-filled thunderstorms!
Some pictures to follow once I scan them in (sorry, i'm getting lazy with that these days)...
We ended the day going back to West Hartford and hitching a ride with Eva to New Haven. Ate at Sorrento's in Hamden, home of my most favorite thin-crust Spinach, Sausage, and Anchovy pizza. Oh, it was like heaven.... And we discovered that Eva's new apartment in NH gets a free gospel concert every Sunday for about 5 hours. Hee...
And then back to New York where Dave will get imprisoned in my 100 square foot room...
