A day in Hartford….Carol too…David had to work

The main attraction, a vintage Carousel. We had to ride of course.
Did you know, very carousel has a lead horse. The capital building was near by so we checked it out. A bit over the top I suppose with columns and carvings and lots of marble inside. There is a civil war flag collection too. Well worth the side trip. The flower gardens at Elizabeth Park were fantastic too. Thank goodness for quite a bit of shade….it was one of those melt in the sun sort of days today.
Lunch time
The locals recommended a BBQ place. Black Eyed Sally’s. It was a hit all the way from the fried okra and pickle chips to the brisket and pulled pork. They didn’t steer us wrong.
The Twain house.
“Build me a red house”. The architect certainly did. Ole Sam had quite the place here in Harford.
