Beaver Brook Farms

March 13, 2010 by Steve Leave a Comment

Beaver Cheese Beaver Brook Farms, Lyme 8/24/2009 It took some doing, but Hoang has finally convinced me that a warm and sunny lazy summer day at the beach is a worthwhile and wonderful pursuit.

The Best (Castle) a Man Can Get East Haddam & Lyme (Google Maps Location) May 31, 2009 I've since visited Gillette Castle many times, for many different reasons.

Na, I Can't Quit Ya, Trail Hamburg section of Lyme, 3.4 miles, solo July 8, 2007 2018 Note: This description is very old. Things have surely changed! In fact, this trail may be a re-do for me when I explore the wider range of the Nehantic State Forest. A hot and muggy July Sunday with nothing to do - why not … [Read more...]
