Biking CT for Education

With everything else he has on his plate Jeff is the representative for his class on the education board at QU. Through this program we got an awesome opportunity to do a bike ride across CT starting in New Haven and ending at the Massachusetts border. They called it "Biking Connecticut for Education" and it was a fundraiser of sorts to raise scholarship money for PA students. As we all know PA school is not cheap by any means and we were more than happy to participate and donate to this awesome cause. Unfortunately the bikes we planned on borrowing for the ride were not available to us come the weekend of the event so we did the walking portion instead but still had a great time. The event was split into 2 days saturday and sunday, sunday being mine and Jeff's favorite day. We took the scenic route up to Suffield CT which is just a few miles from the Mass border and it was so beautiful. We enjoyed the whole day just driving, walking and taking pictures of all the beautiful scenery and houses. I am obsessed with the houses out here. I could look at them all day and never get bored, they are all so different and have so much character. Someday Jeff and I want to design our own house after the ones we have seen on the east coast. We BBQ after the walk/ride finished on Sunday afternoon and ended up raising I believe about $4500 dollars for a scholarship. It was a great weekend!
