Memorial Day weekend jaunts

[jessicaem]

Most weekends are three days long for me since I usually don't go in to work on Fridays, but this three-day weekend is different. First of all, I DID go to work on Friday, and second, Lee gets three days off--highly unusual

Paying for beach parking is an obnoxious fact of life in these parts. In NJ it's even better; in most places you have to pay to park and then pay to get on the beach!

Thanks for sharing the pics; I have wanted to get to Mystic Seaport one of these days. If you ever want a fun beach town to visit I recommend Cape May, although it's a bit of a haul from where you are. Lots of low-key, non-chain shopping and eating, victorian homes and a nice beach.

you really are a new englander now, you went to misquamicut!

you are right that it is super crowded - my family and i always went down to rocky neck in niantic - we called it going to the ocean but it's really on long island sound. It's less crowded and probably closer to you guys.
