Everything Stamford 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” Stamford CTMQ-style... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. That is the ultimate goal of CTMQ. If … [Read more...]
Stamford Land Conservation Trust Intro
Stamford Land Conservation Trust Stamford Do you ever think about these land trusts in lower Fairfield County and how extraordinary they are? Land in Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, New Canaan, etc. is very, very expensive land. Probably some of the most expensive non-big city land in the country I'd guess. And yet … [Read more...]
Stamford’s Town Trails Into
Stamford's Town Trails Stamford is a city. Like, a real honest-to-goodness city. With tall buildings and Fortune 500 companies and bars and everything. Heck, it even has a Trump building. But it also has some trails because Stamford also has suburbs! And beachfront! This is all a bit crazy here in Connecticut. … [Read more...]
Hawk Hill Farm
Hawk the Herald Angels Sing Hawk Hill Farm, ~1 mile, Bloomfield April 2020 I just love the fact that there are so many Bloomfield hikes. I don't really know what the collective thought about Bloomfield is, but I'd guess it has nothing to do with all the available trails to hike. Even though part of Talcott … [Read more...]

The Lifeguard (2013)
Zero Life The Lifeguard, 2013 "The Lifeguard is a painfully dull (alleged) drama utterly lacking in originality or self-awareness," said Jordan Hoffman of Film.com who gave the film a 2.7/10. I should have listened to Jordan Hoffman. I like Kristen Bell. She seems like a good egg, and I really love "The Good … [Read more...]

Colebrook’s Town Trails
Colebrook's Town Trails Don't worry, your friends probably don't know where Colebrook is either. It's okay - Colebrookians like it that way. (It's north of Winsted on the Massachusetts border if that helps.) And while it is mostly either forest or reservoir, there really don't seem to be too many "town trails." … [Read more...]
Colebrook Land Conservancy
Colebrook Land Conservancy Colebrook Colebrook is beautiful. Colebrook is the Connecticut town that time forgot. A store, a church or two, some houses of course, and... a whole lot of woods. Most of those woods are the Algonquin State Forest, but the local land conservancy has a few parcels as well. One … [Read more...]
LaSalette Open Space
On a Mission LaSalette Open Space, Bloomfield July 2019 & April 2020 I've seen this place called LaSalette Park as much as LaSalette Open Space. Get it together Bloomfield. The property bumps up against the Wintonbury Land Trust's Hawk Hill Farm property and the maps of both sort of bleed over into each other. Get … [Read more...]
