New England in the Fall


This is the first year since I moved to Florida that I didn't get to see the leaves change color in CT. I stole this picture off of Flickr since I couldn't take any of my own. With my move to South Florida and starting a new job, I lost all the vacation time that I had saved up. I normally reserve 2 weeks for my parents (October for my mom for her birthday and my dad whenever he wants me to go to Hawaii since his schedule always changes) and then the other two I save for miscellaneous days off that I feel like taking or to go on vacation with Claire.

If there is one thing that I miss the most about the North East its the changing seasons and fall is one of my favorite. Although I'm not a big fan of raking leaves or anything like that, I do enjoy watching the leaves change color and driving on the Merrit Parkway which is lined totally by trees. Maybe next year I'll make it to Connecticut for my mom's birthday, then I can take some more pictures of the changing leaves and enjoy the New England area.
