We spent a wonderful couple of nights staying with our dear friends Dale and Joe in the idyllic village of Stony Creek. Here they are outside their beautiful new home, designed by Joe.
The village sits on Long Island Sound and just off shore are a number of small islands. Appropriately called the Thimble Islands, they are in fact an archipelago of small islands, many of which are just large enough to support one or two homes.
On the day we arrived, Joe and Dale took as on a stroll. Here are some of the beautiful scenes that we saw along the way.
On the next morning, we continued exploring the village on our own.
In the afternoon we drove over with Dale to the nearby town of Guilford with its beautiful town green.
Then to cap off a wonderful day, we went for a sunset cruise on the Mystic river in a classic wooden speedboat. Some of you may know Mystic from the classic eighties romcom, Mystic Pizza, starring Julia Roberts in her first major movie role.
