A funny thing happened on the way back from Avon CT this week on the Acura swap. Was lunch time, so I began searching for road food. The first and most readily available spot was Willies. They wouldn't give a receipt, so I trucked on!

 

The Pub in Norwalk was real attractive,  but it was too attractive, if you know what I mean. [stopped on later trip for dinner & Old Speckled Hen, 150 brews on tap]

 

Then my navigation system displayed some restaurants in Cannan, 77miles and 1hour 23 mins from home. Collins Diner it was, http://www.collinsdiner.com/ top ten in New York Times. Love to have the local home fries when I travel. Hate their home fries. Bad choice. NYT has it all wrong!

 

Nice sculptured bouquet of aluminum and steel on roadside just south of Austerlitz to brighten the day however.
