Our trip to Connecticut.

We travelled to see my family and good friends. Wonderful overdue visitations.
Had a window seat on the first flight.

First stop my friend Ari's dome house, seen from his drone above us. He has the larger dome,
his mom the smaller.

Inside looking out.

Ari's mom and son.

Next we went to stay with great friends, bunked with them mostly and played Nerf Ping Pong.

We had a delightful visit with my 92-year-old aunt and her Sami.

A glimpse at her back yard.

My old friend took me for a ride in his 2003 Saab —

out and about with the top down.

Back home, this was today's sunrise.

And sunset. It is good to be back home.

P.S. Shadow and KC return tomorrow.
