Wowie Maui, Hawaii May 2005 Exactly two years after our honeymoon to Hawaii (Kauai, Big Island, Oahu), Hoang's performance at work earned her a trip to Maui. Yes folks, your generous Aetna premiums in the early to mid 2000's helped the company pay for a couple hundred or so top performers and their spouses to stay … [Read more...]
Seabury Wildwood Trails
Keeping Bloomfield in Control Seabury Wildwood Trails, Bloomfield April 2015 & March 2020 You won't believe this, but this property took me three visits to complete all of its trails. Three! Add a fourth visit to check out the "Large-scale Wintonbury Flying Club Fly-in" and I'm basically a Seabury regular. … [Read more...]
Non-CT Travel, Hikes, Books, & Movies
Non-CTMQ Everything I Feel Like Chronicling Not in or Related to Connecticut I've resisted putting this together in some cohesive way for years. Many years. But as I've settled on the major sections of this website, I realized I have a few outlying subjects that simply never fit in elsewhere. Granted, many of these … [Read more...]
CTMQ’s Guide to Warren
Everything Warren I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state. I plan on “completing” Warren CTMQ-style... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. After all, that is the ultimate goal of … [Read more...]
Warren’s Town Trails Intro
Warren's Town Trails Like you, I know nothing about Warren. This is how Warren likes it. I have been able to discern that there is this place called Warren's Woods that is owned by the town. There is a pond there with a pavilion and some picnic tables and stuff. Are there trails there? One trail? I have no … [Read more...]
Warren Land Trust Intro
Warren Land Trust Warren Warren is easily one of the least developed towns in all of Connecticut. You don't know anyone from Warren. Heck, you've never even been to Warren and likely have never even heard of Warren. No, no... that's Sherman you're thinking of, not Warren. I have this whole idea to write a … [Read more...]
Book Review: Traveler’s Guide to Western New England and the CT River Valley
No One Cares About the Gold Coast Anyway Traveler's Guide to Western New England and the CT River Valley Tim Mulligan, 1994 This review completely ignores the non-Connecticut portion of the book. It is absurd to review a travel guide from 1994 for all the obvious reasons. This book was published just before … [Read more...]

Everything Newington I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state. I plan on “completing” Newington CTMQ-style... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. That is the ultimate goal of CTMQ. If … [Read more...]
CTMQ’s Guide to Westbrook
Everything Westbrook I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state.

Westbrook’s Town Trails
Westbrook's Town Trails Westbrook is not Westport. Westbrook is not Westport. Now say it out loud. I don't know if anyone besides me needs this reminder, but I mix the two towns up all the time. I forget which one is the Gold Coast fancy Fairfield County one and which is the fairly undeveloped and rather quiet … [Read more...]
