Mondays generally suck, don't they? And for good reasons. One, you've got a whole work week ahead of you. Blech! Two, you didn't get everything done that you wanted to get done over the weekend. Damn! Three, you gotta get up early instead of sleeping in. Crap! Yeah, all in all, Mondays really do suck.
But rather than let Monday get me down, I've decided ('cause it's my blog and I can do what I want) to make today "I just love....don't you" Day. I'll be telling (and showing) you people, places and things that 'I just love' all day today. Maybe some of them you'll love too. Probably some not so much.
Let's see, I started this off last night with Kate Bush. What can be next? Ooh, I know!
I just love Mystic, Connecticut! Don't you? In fact, I really love all of New England. I was born in Connecticut and finished high school right down the road from Mystic (Go Fitch Falcons!). I have always fanasized about owning a beautiful home along the Mystic River. One of the ones that have to painted white by law. It's really beautiful up there. If you've never been, I can highly recommend it. It's a great place for a nice, 'get-away-from-it-all' vacation.
Maybe we'll meet you there! We'll catch you at the bar at The Steak Loft. Cheers!

Posted by: Adelle at October 20, 2003 07:21 AMI lurve me some Mystic~but I absolutely love the Cliffwalk in Newport, RI. I used to hike down to the Japanese Tea House and wonder what it looks like inside. Oh, and the other mansions are kinda nice too ;)
"Jamestown Bridge is falling down, falling down...."
Betcha ya didn't know I used to live in Providence.
Posted by: judi at October 20, 2003 07:53 AMI was just visiting Mystic a few weekends ago with my German friends. We walked around the town and explored the little shops. It's a great little town!

Some day I seriously want to live on the east coast. Somewhere in the boon-toonies.... way out of no where. The coast would be nice :D
Posted by: Rachel in Alaska at October 20, 2003 01:15 PMI drove through Mystic, CT once.
Posted by: Erica at October 20, 2003 07:06 PMI've been to Mystic. I went there when I was visiting my sister, who lives in Westport, CT. Walked around on one of the boats and went to the boat-making building. Very interesting.
