Well, the weather geeks got it wrong again today – at least partially. When I left the house this morning, they said it would be nice for most of the day, then cloud up later in the day. That would work for me – I’ll take my walk and grab […]
Connecticut
Spring has finally sprung around southeastern Connecticut. The leaves have all sprouted, and everthing is looking nice and green of late. Today I decided to take my walk around the Mill Cove area in Ledyard to take in some of the greenery, and of coursse use it as a backdrop […]
Another cloudy and foggy start to the day today. And again, the bulk of the fog stayed to the south of the Thames River, and didn’t come into play when I took my walk near Red Top in Ledyard, CT on the Providence & Worcester’s Norwich Branch. But I did […]
Fog is a part of being on the shore, especially in the morning hours before the sun has a chance to burn it off. With the recent warmer weather, there was some fairly dense fog at the southern end of the Thames River this morning. I figured I might be […]
Well today was a bit busy at work, so I didn’t get a chance to head out at my normal time for my walk. It would have to wait until after lunch, and even then, it would have to be shorter than normal. I figured that, despite the harsh midday […]

Today was a gorgeous day, so I couldn’t pass up my walk. Since the car was on empty, I decided to stay close to the office, and do my walk around Mill Cove in Ledyard, CT. As I pulled into the parking area of Erickson Park, the Providence & Worcester […]
Well, I had to come into work late today – the kids had a dentist appointment – so there was no time for my usual walk. Plus it was raining this morning – not exactly ideal walking conditions. But on my way over after the appointment (the girls did great […]
For today’s walk, I opted for the MP4 area in Ledyard again, hoping for the usual rendezvous with Providence & Worcester train NR-2. But instead of hitting the north end of Mill Cove right at the milepost marker as I did yesterday, I went to the south end of the […]
For today’s walk, I decided to stay a bit further south, and hit Red Top at about MP4 on the Providence & Worcester’s Norwich Branch. As it turns out, this was a pretty good decision – I not only was able to catch P&W train NR-2 heading south with quite […]
