Labrador Deciever

Here's how we spent our Labor day - so we're only a month behind, here. We went to Hubbard Park because there's a nice playground there. We packed a lunch and went, thinking we'd be at the playground all day.

Well, there's a back road that leads past an old (?) reservoir and up the hill. On top of the hill, for some reason even wikipedia can't tell me, there is a small Norman-like turret castle. From the top you can see both  New Haven and Hartford.

So we ended up eating our picnic up there and climbing on the rocks.

I kept the pics bigger so they're easier to see.

Charlie on the rocks. She was like a mountain goat.

I was pointing out where we lived. Or maybe I was showing Asher where he'd land . . .

I always forget how squinty I am.

Here's us at the reservoir. We mainly spent our time hucking rocks into the water. Points for best splashes.

When we got home Ash found the last of the summer strawberries. We spent the rest of the time doing yard work - taking down parts of the garden. Our tomatoes were done (but our green peppers are still chugging along nicely).
