First View of Ct
Yep, it really is that beautiful in Fall. Summer was pretty darn nice too! This is at one of the local ponds associated with a park. There is abundant water around so many ponds, small lakes, and a few rivers to boot.
My first view of my future work parking lot. The building is completely invisible from the street as are the parking lots.
I was pretty excited about the big houses in the town but now we are even more excited about the big houses out in the countryside. Hopefully in another month I'll be able to post pictures of what will be our future home. Some people haven't gotten the message that during a housing bust period of high unemployment and critically limited spending that house prices go down. Guess it is a hard lesson.

Moving on...
...in a number of ways. Since moving from England to Poland I made a quick visit back home to California and more recently moved to Connecticut where we are still located. Old friends have gone in place of new friends as have old habits for new. The earrings have gone in place of a tongue ring that is really not that new, got it in 2000, but is still makes people uncomfortable. Finally got that tattoo I always wanted and now I think every time I go to Poland I am getting another one. Trying for kids which probably won't chance much and we are making offers on various houses. Moving on now to more recent photos we'll begin to focus on what exactly Connecticut looks like what they've got here.
Hope you all enjoy.

Short Term
After being tossed like a salad I quickly grabbed this upscale apartment. It was only a month to month affair which turned out good because much better options quickly came up. This was a four bedroom affair with all of the renters completely independent and more or less isolated. There was one lovely French woman and a British guy who was there every third weekend. The last renter was kind of a dick but fortunately he stayed out of my way for the 2 months I lived there.

Kicked Out
As mentioned previously all five of us were unceremoniously kicked out shortly before Christmas. Fortunately we were able to get across the untenable position the owner was putting us under by providing such short notice at the holiday season and we forced a bit of a respite. We all went our separate ways eventually but not before the owner could bring in "muscle" to drop the hint once again he wanted us out. I moved briefly into the place shown above. It was nice, and nice and expensive but I was only there until a much better opportunity came about.
