The Ash-fugee Vagrant Adventure

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was Ashford,  October 29th 2011. A gentle snow began to fall on our recently doubled in size property, a rare occurrence this early in the year, but still feeling routine for a family of hardy New Englanders. Robby was enjoying his first snow.

By mid afternoon it was apparent that this storm was going to be different. Not different in the sense that there was a lot of snow or there was a lot of damage, but there was a feeling that the Governor and his cronies in Hartford were going to let us down. Don't ask me how we knew, we just did.

Then it happened.

Yup. 1 hour later we were gone!

So we headed to Madison to stay with Jim, Sue, Chris, and Nicholas. They were so great! Thanks to all of you for putting up with the Gypsies for the week--we wouldn't of made it through without you guys. And Chris's candy.

It made Christina and the Tiny Tubster quite happy!

And then we got some great drawings from Nicky--they're on the fridge--great work!

So after a week of crazy commuting in the wrong direction and an angry cat in the spare room (thanks again guys!) we headed down to Maryland to see the Davis clan.

Stay tuned for Part II
