Kyle and I are antsy to take advantage of every free moment to see the beautiful leaves here in Connecticut. We've learned that the real enthusiasts are called leaf-peepers and keep websites devoted to sharing where the foliage is at its peak.
On Monday, Kyle and I laced up our hiking shoes and made our way to the trail head at Talcott Mountain State Park. Just like Mt. Tom, this site includes a tower with a 360 view of the gorgeous state at the top. Just like Mt. Tom, Kyle and I arrived 15 minutes before closing. Unlike Mt. Tom, we made it too late to climb the tower to see the view despite the fact that we trail ran up the 1.25 mile hike (never fear...we made plans to go back in two weeks). We had a great time anyway and got some nice pictures at several vistas along the way.
Beautiful pictures! We need to visit you during the fall one year!
