    Christmas in Connecticut.
    It just doesn't get any better than that.

    Ah, Land-Rovers. That one's in good shape. The back part of the frame (there is no rear bumper) is a trap for road salts. Looks like the owner is set up for a tailboard and canvas top. No free-wheeling hubs. Exceptionally shiny fenders for one that old, pre-1968 is my guess. Wish I still had one, but I have many other wishes.

      Looks like the vehicle on the Britbox show "Vera". Love older Land-Rovers!

    In the wreath on the door of the 1806 Richard Hayden house, what are the lime-green clusters? Anyone know? (I assume they're not broccoli - !)

      Tight green pod like clusters- like found on bay or eucalyptus trees...

    It's been too long since I visisted Essex. Great shots as usual. Finishing off with the Bernese pup was a nice touch!! All the best.
