Beautiful Weekend

20130428_112448Today it's semi cloudy with some showers and the high is only supposed to be 60F (15C). But over the weekend we actually had some pretty nice weather for a change. Sunny both days and almost 70F (21C) so that worked out.

On Saturday we slept in late and then had lunch at 121 in Oxford. Always a fun place with great food, plus it's fun to watch the planes land and take off. 

Sunday we got up a little earlier and headed to Fairfield, CT to the CT Audubon Society where they have plenty of trails. Had fun exploring some of the trails. Wasn't even all that busy and it was nice to get outside and soak in the sunshine. It was sad to see all the damage they had from the storms (hurricane & blizzard) this past season though. They are definitely working on restoring everything as best as possible. 

After our nature walk we went to lunch at Flipside in Fairfield. Ever since we discovered the place last year we have enjoy going there. Definitely a case of "Groupon gone right". :) If it hadn't been for Groupon we might have never discovered the place. Now we have been back four times I think.

After getting back home we caught up on some of our recorded TV shows with some cheese, crackers & olives. A nice relaxing night. Now it's Monday and back to the regular world. :( I hope this week goes better than last week, or at the very least Friday. Friday was just a horrible day at work. So fingers crossed. :)  

Mail Update: A letter went out to Nina/WA on Thursday. Letters going out today to: Jessica/DE and Charles/TN. Owe replies to: Tiffany/OK.

Lol, "group on gone right". Actually I've been quite lucky with group on too, though I've never actually done a food one.
