A Baby Pigeon! Barnes Nature Center & Pigeon Hill Preserve Trails, Bristol & Burlington November 2020 The super fun thing about pursuing my ridiculous goals for this website is keeping on top of things in towns which I've "completed" previously. Take Burlington. I "completed" Burlington in 2018 and it's … [Read more...]
Gasoline Alley Automotive/Ford Museum
Full Gas Stafford (Google Maps location) October 2017 I do not know if Donald Passardi still opens his private museum to visitors. Information on this place is very hard to come by these days - not that it was ever easy. Heck, I've never been sure what the name of this place is. I've seen it as Gasoline Alley … [Read more...]
Lakes Leakalot and Leakalot More
Lakes Leakalot and Leakalot More Eastford If you happen to be reading this and haven't read much else on this website, I promise you that this page isn't indicative of the typical high quality content on CTMQ.

RWA: Lake Hammonasset
Mad Killing It, Yo Lake Hammonasset, Madison & Killingworth January 2021 All Regional Water Authority (RWA) properties require a purchased permit to access.

Auntie Mame (1958)
Auntie Awesome Auntie Mame, 1958 I love this movie. My wife loves this movie. If you don't at least like this movie, you are dead inside. And while it's only peripherally a "Connecticut movie," it's "Connecticutness" is enough to warrant a page on this website. It's a long movie with many twists and turns. … [Read more...]
The Barker Character Comic and Cartoon Museum & Art Gallery
This Place Gets Me Quite Animated Cheshire (Google Maps location) September 2014 & January 2017 Most readers know that I rarely visit the same museum twice. That's not a statement on the quality of the museums, but rather a simple function of logistics and my oh-so precious time. I've been to The Barker … [Read more...]
Bear Hands Brewing Company
The Right to Bear Hands Bear Hands Brewing Company, Putnam November 2020 My friend Adam and I have an ongoing inside joke between us that isn't suited for this family website. (Although, this page is about a brewery so it's not really a family page.) It involves the baddest of the bad words and the town of Putnam. … [Read more...]
Ninevah Falls
Biblical! Ninevah Falls, Killingworth & Madison January 2021 I just learned that Ninevah was the largest city in the world at one time. From about 660-612 BC. I remember it from my childhood Bible studies, but for those of you without that impossibly fun background, Ninevah was located where modern day Mosul in … [Read more...]
MLCT: Summer Hill Trail
Summer Mapped, Summer Not Summer Hill Trail, Madison January 2021 Madison has many very nice little trailed properties. State Park, State Forest, Water Authority, CFPA... trails everywhere. Beaches, forests, and fields. It's great. And the Madison Land Conservation Trust has over a dozen properties throughout the … [Read more...]
Oliver Wolcott Library
This Library is a Hoot Oliver Wolcott Library Litchfield I'll admit, I'm not your typical "center of Litchfield" photographer. Sure, the main block of businesses is pure New England. Everyone is drawn to the First Congregational Church and its picture book white steeple. The row of historic homes on South Street … [Read more...]
