Everything Windham 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” Windham CTMQ-style... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. That is the ultimate goal of CTMQ. If … [Read more...]
Bloomfield Spite Barn (Gone)
"Shove Your Tariff(ville)" Bloomfield Spite Barn, Bloomfield I've got nothing here. Other than a love for spite houses. Connecticut has a couple and one is rather infamous. The spite barn in Bloomfield is long gone, but the tavern which is blocked is still there. So I took a picture of it. From the … [Read more...]
The Wilde Building
That's Wilde, Man, Wilde The Wilde Building, Bloomfield Currently the Cigna headquarters, this place deserves more than a passing mention in a throwaway post... but then I'd have to seek out all the cool office buildings in the state and that ain't happening. I realize mid-century design isn’t for everyone, but I … [Read more...]
Windham’s Town Trails
Windham's Town Trails If you've found yourself on this page and are wondering, "I wonder if this website has a page for all 169 towns' trails," I'm pleased to tell you that yes... yes it does.

Penwood State Park’s Color Trails
Penwood: A Rainbow of Fun!

MDC Reservoir 6
The MDC is a Criminal Organization MDC Reservoir 6, Bloomfield, Simsbury, & West Hartford August 2020 I must admit... it's sort of weird writing about a place I've been to a million times. But here I am, nearly 14 years after starting this website and after 20 years of living nearby, doing just that. Yes, I just … [Read more...]
Aspetuck Falls
AspecTuck and Remove Lens Cover Aspetuck Falls, Washington September 2019 The little Village of New Preston is actually bigger than the shops that everyone associates with New Preston. It encompasses pretty much the entire northwest quadrant of Washington and Lake Waramaug. But it's definitely the artsy cutesy … [Read more...]

Southington’s Town Trails
Southington's Town Trails If you read Southington's Wiki entry or the town's website, you'll note that the bedroom community is described as being in between two mountain ranges. And while that's technically true, if you were standing in the center of town, you would hardly notice either. But hey, there's a … [Read more...]
Chrissie D’Esopo’s Flower House
D'EsoPow! Chrissie D'Esopo's Flower House Avon I view this page two ways. One, it's ridiculous. I can't be driving around the state every June taking drive-by pictures of every house with nice landscaping. C'mon now. Or... it's awesome. Surely I'm highlighting the immense labor and cost put into this place on … [Read more...]
