Saybrook Point

Monday July 18, 2022

The short version: it rained all day.

We played 2-handed Pinochle, read our books, and walked the dog between showers.

Here’s a photo of a wonderful plaque we came across on the walk along the river:

That says it all, doesn’t it? I don’t think I could find a better expression of MY attitude!

Saybrook Point is a charming hotel and marina in a very pretty spot at the mouth of the Connecticut River – I think it may be the longest river in New England, with its source near the Canadian border. They care a lot about history here, and the adjacent parks are filled with stories about the first fortifications, the early railroad, the ferry to Lyme, etc. Charming.

We had a yummy dinner in the restaurant, and then early to bed.

Tomorrow we are off to Newport!
