93 Degrees Yesterday

It's hard to believe that the mercury hit a whopping 93 degrees yesterday, especially on April 7th in Connecticut. It would seem that we've transitioned from a four season climate to a two season one: hot and cold.

Last week we had quite a bit of rain and some flooding. No real damage to anything, just created a traffic nightmare as the number of roads over Talcott and Avon mountains were reduced.

Had a nice Easter, 85 and sunny. The whole family was here. We hope that yours was outstanding as well.

Gavin, Evangeline and I visited the Wadsworth Antheneum, Hartford's art museum, the day before EASTER. They both had a paper to turn in and needed to do some research there. I'm always a sucker for art museums, so I went along for the ride.

For a small town like Hartford, they have a really impressive collection. There were several Picassos, Rembrants and Van Gogh's - including this self potrait. I imagine that between the Colts and the big insurance companies that there has been some significant patronage over the years.

This coming weekend, Hannah will compete at the RPI in greater Albany. She's to move up and will dance at the Silver level. Hopefully, we'll have a few new photos and what not to share via the blog.

Take care all.
