First leg of our New England trek


Well yesterday was a long day. Brian did all of the driving while I was having fun taking, or a least attempting to take, pictures documenting our drive. We passed through Connecticut, Rhode Island, and then into Massachusetts. First stop was Brian's first alma matter, Dean College. I had fun driving and walking around campus while Brian recounted his time there. Then it was off to Boston to meet up with Danny. Time started getting away from us and we missed brunch at the Beehive but went to this diner that has Brittany Spears on their menus. Hanging out in Boston was fun but it was soon time leave and head for the hockey game.

An hour drive up I-93 led us into New Hampshire and to our final destination of the night...Manchester. The game was fun. The Manchester Monarchs beat the Adirondack Phantoms 4-3. For the first time ever I caught a t-shirt and in doing so apparently really pissed-off the woman in front of us...Oh well. The night was almost a disaster as I realized after leaving the arena that I left my purse at my seat AHHHHH! Luckily I was able to run back in and found it right where I left it. Although I think I may have shaved at least 5 years off my life. Once I could breath again, we headed to the Red Arrow Diner featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. We even got to sit at the counter where Guy sat. The food was good but not as good as we thought it would be. The Dinah Fingers aka homemade Twinkies were delish.

After a good nights sleep back in Boston we are about to head down to Providence. Can't wait for my Coffee Milk :-)
