Cold and Clear

We bundled up to take Kita for a walk in the reservoir this afternoon since it's supposed to be much colder tomorrow.

Today we took one of the more secluded paths which brought us to a couple of scenic overlooks.

This view looks over the reservoir property to Farmington Avenue and new condominiums in the distance.  The paved road I where usually walk is at a higher elevation but all the trees block the view.

Yesterday afternoon I met one of my friends from grad school at Harvest Cafe and Bakery in Simsbury for lunch.  We both had the French toast on their homemade bread--delicious!  It was wonderful to catch up with Helen as I haven't seen her since the summer.  We gabbed so long that we closed the place at 3 pm!
