Connecticut in the Fall

The Hartford area is so pretty this time of year. With the fall color in full swing and the crisp air to wake you up every morning, it's everything I like about autumn. There is one small problem:

I think I'm allergic to Connecticut.

It's nothing personal, but ever since I started visiting this state 18 years ago, I have always felt unwell during my stay. I don't know whether it's something in the water or the air, but I just don't feel right. I can't sleep properly and my stomach never settles.

What kills me is that I think this is a very picturesque corner of the country. I always love driving the narrow, winding country roads around hills and through the trees as they change color. I am charmed by what I see, and would love to spend more time just absorbing the views.

I just don't think my body could handle it.
