A Taste of Holland (Closed)
Because Wooden Shoes Make So Much Sense A Taste of Holland store, South Norwalk June 13, 2009 This store closed in 2018. The reason you're reading about this place on CTMQ is simply because it's weird. An entire store - and fairly big at that - dedicated to all things Dutch. Okay, it's not so weird, as there's … [Read more...]
The Ancient Burying Ground of Hartford
How Many Dead Hookers Fit in this Graveyard? Hartford Ancient Burying Ground June 9, 2009 Way back when I started this blog, I mentioned that I wasn't interested in cemeteries. And this remains largely true, but I've found several around the state that warrant mention. My mind was changed down in the south end … [Read more...]
129. Flanders Nature Center
Sadly, No Rod or Todd in Sight Woodbury (Google Maps Location) July 24, 2009 Casual readers of CTMQ can be forgiven for thinking all of our adventures with Damian are wonderfully happy little trips through the tulips.

Catskills 3500 Club
The Catskills Mountains Eastern New York I'd never hiked in the Catskills before deciding to tackle this list of the 35 peaks there that are over 3,500 feet. On a good traffic day, I can get there in about 2.5 hours and some of the trails are truly beautiful. Heck, I think I can knock out this list over a series of … [Read more...]
Adirondack 46ers
Adirondack 46ers September 4, 2004 - I've absolutely loved the short times I've spent in the Adirondacks. Lake Placid is one of my favorite secret towns in America and the hugely expansive park is inspiring for a reason. And it's inspired another peak-bagging list - the 46 4,000 foot peaks of the ADK's. … [Read more...]
US National Parks
Since I seem to keep track of everything, why not keep track of the National Parks I've been to (and remember)? No stories here, just a list. Tallies as of 7/1/2018 Steve: 23 Hoang: 7 (All with me!) Visited Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona (Family vacation, mid-80's) Petrified Forest National … [Read more...]
New England Hundred Highest (NEHH)
NEHH Includes NH48 and NE67 Another rather ambitious peak-bagging list that I'd love to complete, but I think real life will make this one difficult. There are a bunch of different peak-bagging lists 'round these parts, a few of which are inclusive to the New England Hundred Highest list below. It … [Read more...]
Cheeseburger at Shady Glen
I Feel Shady Eating Cow Shady Glen, Manchester As CTMQ readers may know, I don't eat dead cows (or pigs or goats for that matter). However, for the hugely important purposes of the site, I've cast aside my aversion to the meat industry (really, I don't care about the cows themselves so much) in an effort to sample … [Read more...]
Ice Cream at Shady Glen
Made in the Shady Shady Glen, Manchester August 2009 Shady Glen makes a few appearances on CTMQ. One for their Unique and delicious fried cheese plate, one for their burgers being one of Roadfood's best burgers, and this one - for its ice cream being on that same Roadfood list. I'm sure I'll … [Read more...]
