Hiking Beside Lake Hammonasset
Madison, Connecticut
Saturday, November 19, 2022
Shawn and Brian left the house shortly after 8 AM to go fishing. It took more than one venue to find the fish but they were delighted with Brian’s final catch. At 34 1/2 inches, the striped bass met the requirement of being under 35 inches. Fish is on tonight’s menu. Shawn and Brian have shopped to get the correct accompaniments. They left a while ago to buy cilantro, but I think they went fishing again! It does not take so long to buy cilantro! I was wrong.They are back. They had to explore the grocery store and when they decided to make fish tacos, they had to google a recipe then find the correct ingredients, including finding Mexican cheese.
Shawn always likes to take us hiking where we have not been. His first attempt to hike to Lake Hammonasset from the back way ended at a flooded trail. Although Shawn was willing to carry each of us fifteen feet through water, we declined. We checked out a beautiful waterfall en route to a different entry point to the lake.
Walking in the forest on a sunny day is especially delightful. We see farther through the forest with the leaves on the ground, but we are much noisier rustling through the leaves.

Fresh fish sounds delicious. We are wondering if our power will go out. But it is still a beautiful day here. ( I can say that watching M blow the snow off the deck and sidewalk AGAIN) xoxo to all. C
