Jonathan Edwards Winery

Wine Barrels

Jonathan Edwards Winery, North Stonington, CT

It wasn't the best day to be at the winery.  As you can tell from this week's posts, it was very foggy and rainy for most of the afternoon.  Despite the bad weather, there was a very good turnout for this year's Spring Wine Festival at Jonathan Edwards.  There was good wine, food and music for all who braved the elements.  No one seemed to be bothered by the weather, when it wasn't raining too hard, I was able to get some pictures around the vineyard.

Drive Thru

Niantic, CT

This has got to be one of the smallest drive-thrus I've ever seen.  There's barely enough room inside for one worker.  I think I've seen bigger hot-dog carts on the streets of New York City.  I walk past this place often, and I keep telling myself one of these days I'm going to stop for a hot dog, or perhaps a hot lobster roll.

Seaport Visitor

Mystic Seaport

Recently Theodore Too visited Mystic Seaport.  This tugboat is a full sized replica of a scale model used for the filming of a popular 1990's Canadian TV television show Theodore Tugboat.  The tugboat was on it's way back to its homeport of Halifax, Nova Scotia after spending the winter in Florida.  It's not everyday that one gets to see such a happy tugboat..

Pot Holes

Rocky Neck State Park

These pot holes are formed naturally when a rock gets caught in a depression and gets moved about within by wave action, eventually wearing down the rock.  During the process, the original rock eventually wears away and a larger rock will get trapped, and the process is repeated for I would imagine thousands of years, leaving these pot holes.  As you can see they still trap rocks, and water.  I guess the process continues to this day.
