Hello from Connecticut.   We arrived safe and sound after one of the prettiest rides we have had in a long time.    Paige is out pumpkin picking with the girl scouts, DIL Kathy is out getting a manicure/predicure and Colin is much better and out back swinging on the swing.   Dave is on his way home from work and is all happy that his vacation is officially &quot;on&quot;.  Seems it was a bit iffy during the week with the stock market the way it was.   <br /><br />I&#39;ll check in when I can.    Everyone have a nice weekend.   I understand that we have to be at the Soccer field at 7:30 tomorrow morning as both kids have games.
