Paul Bunyan had an ax when I first seen this three years ago. On a delivery to Cheshire CT. this is on w. Johnson ave. Cheshire CT. Wonder who would win in a fight, paul or the old mutual ford guy that was moved to pike entrance on 291.


Had a delivery to Shelton CT. ran into this place. I wanted to stop and ask for a tour but wanted to fit in bike ride later.











Getting done with a couple hours of daylight left I'm headed to old Mountain Park. Seen this van on the way,bye manny its been fun thanks for the memories now go away.





This sign is last posting of a once great park.






Between a rock and a hard place.Ive seen enough slasher movies to know getting any closer to that little building was not an option.
















Biggest structure on site is pavilion. miniature golf course still offers couple holes. Chain link fence had me stopped at gate so I took road in and bushwacked. Seen other people walking site from direction of gate. There is a visable worn path in.
































natures taking over.


























Having time left, drove north on Rt5 to Mt. Tom. Lots to see in this park many trails. Remains of Stone Crusher on Christopher Clark Rd. in Mt. Tom State Reservation.






























Twin Rocks on Christopher Clark rd. in Mt.Tom State Reservation.

W.Main st. HWY.66 Amston CT. Driving back from Hebron seen this and had to stop. Theres a snake painted on another rock around this town some where. Haven't been out here in a while so will have to find it another time.

Lake Winnipesauke 7-28-8 to 7-29-8

Nice beach $4 a head,locals park outside the fence and walk in. From parking lot down path and it opens to lake.This is a perfect beach, clean water and picnic tables on beach.





Set up camp sit or swim,fun had by all. Judy says place doesn't get over crowded, mostly known by only locals.Mt. Washington floats by gonna have to grab a ride on it one day.














Working sky jump and crayfish in the brook.

































When hippies go legit. Gotta go picking here one day.



































Here's a place that will bring you back . http://www.funspotnh.com/ My mouth hung open walking around this place. Every video game iv played has come to rest in one place. If a video game geek "such as myself" wants to break a record this is where one has to come. King Of Kong movie filmed here.












































Van Halen and other eighty's music pumped in while you play.





















































Nice mix of tourist and real history. The cheesy board walk was old so cheese away. Great old houses on a nice pier. Mt. Washington and mail boat give tours on the lake.






























































Train station, behind this Mt. Washington docked.







































































Walking around tourist trap central, Judy says cops have to climb this hill in under two minutes to ride bike in this town. Bringing a bike next time to see how I match up. Hill is a killer we came down it in low 1.
















































































Church and a killer V.A. home.


























































Day two at the beach brought these guys and better weather.































































































Picnic table in the shade with a grill twenty feet from the water, priceless.




































































Whatever, we kept driving. Maybe we'll come back for truck race or flea market.



































Couldn't go ahead had to detour on account of accident.




































Driving theres always something to look at then, theres Ice Cream.




















































































































We dropped Judy off thanking her for a full weekend. Starting to lose the day, better drop amanda off and go see Mr. Socks.
