It rained for 1 hour between am, which was truly amazing because that is exactly what the weather report called for. It was right for once. I had planned on stopping to visit my niece Tanya and the kids, but plans changed. I really like the back roads route I had planned through RI and into CT so I decided to take the roads less traveled. I traveled Route 44, Route 6 and Route 66. It was awesome looking at farmlands and ponds and nature! Beats the highways anytime. I drove through the little town of Pomfret Center, which is quite quaint. For a time I worked in Portland, CT and liven the next town of Middletown, CT. I stopped to do a hike at the Wadsworth Falls State Park. It was a great hike and the Falls were beautiful. I continued on and arrived at my sisters house in Trumbull, CT. Her husband, Dan cooked a great meal, homemade pizza and a killer salad! Saw a few deer around there house and we went out and watched the International Space Station fly over the house at 9:16 pm.
