Friday Hunt, 2016-21

I am back for this week’s version of Teresa’s fun meme, Friday Hunt. For the week of May 20th, we are given the clues to find our pics, which for me is an offbeat look at the late 1990’s

Starts with U, which means today Unterseeboot. These vacation pics were taken in August 1999 at the Submarine Museum on the grounds of the US Navy Sub Base in Groton CT. The German word for ‘submarine’ is Unterseeboot, underesa boat. Our children were aged 10 and 8 all those years ago…


Week's Favorite. Last week, a carnival was held in Shelton. The picture was taken in Derby, just across the Housatonic River. The colors fall nicely on the surface of the river.

In the morning. Yesterday morn, Patti captured our furry family feline Linus McDonald looking out the living room window. Perhaps he is looking for prey he’ll never meet given the panes of glass. Or he is sleeping with his head up and eyes closed…

SOOC - Grand Opening








Straight out of he Camera - SOOC takes us this week across the Housatonic River to a new restaurant, GROW, a farm-to-table eatery in Shelton, CT. This eatery grew from the ashes of the downtown fixture (since 2004) Liquid Lunch, damaged in a fire last year. 

The restaurant will support local farms (Stone Gardens Farm, Beardsley Orchard, Jones Family Farm, and Farmers Cow Dairy) in its retro cool and stylish interior. Need another visit!
