Day 25-26

We left New York and headed to beautiful Connecticut! 

Upon arrival, Jack, Dan and Erinn drove out to the coast for sunset where there was an amazing lighthouse but no public access. We knocked on the door of a beautiful home, and the owners were gracious enough to allow us to go into their backyard beach to collect Dan's official Connecticut shot! (Be sure to follow @DanBeckmannPhotography on facebook to see his incredible shot in the next couple of days)!

The evening was filled with great tastes and laughter. We ate dinner at a locally owned & operated restaurant called Mystic Royal where we had amazing Indian food! The owner grows her own hot peppers and most of the food is farm-to-table.  The food was AWESOME! ​ Back at the hotel, the gang had a smash tournament in the hotel room. 

Our show at The Kate (The Katherine Hepburn Performing Arts Center) was outstanding! We were thrilled with the full house, the laughter and audience interaction, and especially the amazing staff at the venue! Some of the best folks we've ever encountered in all our touring! 

The quilt of Valor for the show went to Vietnam Army Helicopter pilot Fred Brisbois who had an outstanding heart, and was presented by two gold star mothers, Helen Pedersen-Keiser and Cathy Cross. 

Our hotel sponsor and official "home" for Connecticut is the beautiful Hilton Garden Inn in Gorton, Connecticut.  We couldn't do this tour without the support of so many amazing hotels across the country and we thank you for your hospitality!
