June 21, 2012. Southington, CT. The New Mill.

I don't know how Ken does it and neither does he.  Today we arrived at our hotel at 4:00.  When we travel, we skip lunch, rather we pick at nuts and granola bars.  Upon arrival, we eat an early dinner, but the big question is always "Where should we dine?"  Ken sat down and began reading the yellow pages of the telephone book and decided that The New Mill was a good restaurant.  How he figured this out I have no clue but Kate, Mary Frances and I will tell you that he chose well.  The restaurant was wonderful.  By the time we left at 6:45 the place was full.

The day was very hot but the truck stayed cool so we made good time, driving on 81 and then 84.  As this is tourist season, we decided to book ahead which was a good thing because this Comfort Suites is full.  I am always surprised how pretty the drive is across Pennsylvania.  Now tomorrow night we will stay just outside Portland, Maine.  So far, our journey has been pleasant.  We look forward to another good day tomorrow.
