We spent some time in Mystic, Connecticut, on our recent New England vacation, starting at
B.F. Clyde's Cider Mill. Especially coming from the desert and the land of palm trees, this was such a treat and really gave us the feeling of experiencing Autumn ...

Don't you just want to HUG this building??? |

Processing the apples for cider |
|
Nice jugs! |
|
Cider running wild and free ... it smelled great |
|
Cider making equipment |
|
Caught somebody's kid about to become an apple hoodlum |
|
Doesn't this porch just beckon? Take a load off, stay awhile! |
|
The whole place was fairytale cute |
|
*sigh* |
Then it was off to Mystic Pizza to have lunch. That's right, Mystic Pizza of Julia Roberts movie fame and, BTW, the pizza was really good ...
And, finally, there just happened to be a regatta in progress on the river ...
Our day in Mystic was perfect. A little Fall, apple cider, pizza, fresh air and sunshine. These signs from the cider mill just make me smile ...

OMGosh I would LOVE to go to Mystic Pizza, on of my 80's must have movie collection :). Thanks for the story too I loved reading it. I don't think I've seen their frozen pizza I'll have to look :)
Love the last photo

How wonderful! Your photos are great, it looks like a terrific place to be, and I'm sure you had a fun time!!
I could almost smell the cider brewing from your photos. I'd never seen Mystic Pizza, so it was really fun to read about it. Now I have to go rent it. I think that's the fourth or fifth time you've done that to me!
