Hiking in Connecticut

Trevor in his "top down" seat belt
This last week-end, Eddie and I took Trevor to the Mianus River State Park in  Connecticut.  We took the dog and went for a little hike.  It was actually a very nice little place - not far from the city - and up the Merritt Parkway.

Here are some pictures:

Head off into the dappled sunlight (poetic eh?)

The first part of the trail was like this.  With some river bank fenced off for replanting.

Later we hiked up and down for over 2 miles.
Trevor - not big on endurance - had to be carried up the hills towards the end.

The River Park abuts the "Treetops State Park" too.
You can see why they call it that.
