Hi. I’m in Bozrah. Fitch Claremont Vineyard and B&B June 2011 The Bed & Breakfast ceased operations in 2020. I’m doing it. I’m really doing it! I’m writing a page about something in Bozrah! I started this website in September 2006 and it’s now March 2013. In those six and a half years, Bozrah has come … [Read more...]

It’s sister shop, Michael’s on the Mitchell College Campus is still open in 2019, but no longer serves Connecticut made ice cream. But I'll keep this page for … [Read more...]
Summer Brook Valley Farm Alpacas (Closed)
Alpaca? But I Hardly Know Ya Summer Brook Valley Farm Alpacas November 26, 2011 This page is... crazy. Summer Brook closed in 2015 for one, and it goes way too deep into alpaca-dom for some reason. But this is the only alpaca place you'll find on CTMQ, though other similar places are of course still operating in … [Read more...]
Charles Ives Birthplace Museum
Bittersweet Symphony Danbury June 2012 2019 Update: No, this wasn’t the 434th museum I visited. It was somewhere around the 175th. But I decided to roll these post-closure “visits” into my general Museum Visits list so I have one less list to worry about. I figure with the defunct visits, it doesn’t really … [Read more...]
Polish Plate at Staropolska (Closed)
Great Place to Polish off a Meal Staropolska, New Britain After 30 years, Staropolska closed in 2024. Ah, New Britski. I could write several thousand words on New Britain’s Broad Street “Little Poland” area. I don’t know why it fascinates me so much, as I’ve been to plenty of neighborhoods with fairly … [Read more...]
Belgique Chocolatier (Closed)
Très Délicieux, Très Cher Belgique Chocolatier, Kent February 25, 2012 This place closed in the fall of 2012. This was always my go-to anytime I went hiking out near Kent. Sad face. Also, just having re-read this page in 2019... it's a shame I put no effort into it, as Belgique was pretty great. The Chocolate … [Read more...]
West River Fishway (Removed)
Dam, Yo! West River Fishway Behind a Walgreens on Whalley Ave, New Haven In 2015, the dam and fishway were removed - which is a good thing! Fish now have a direct path to get to where they're going. The fish ladder was moved to another river in Connecticut. This is still an interesting story, so I'm not deleting … [Read more...]
The Concrete Factory (Closed)
You'd Hard Ice Cream... The Concrete Factory, Ashford November 2011 The Concrete Factory closed in 2013. Let's dispense with the obvious first: This is a very oddly named ice cream boutique. Ashford doesn't have too many attractions. It was late November yet we got ice cream. Now that you've wrapped your head … [Read more...]
Arts Council of Gr. New Haven Galleries (Closed)
Four Dates for Art New Haven (Google Maps location) Varying Dates There were four galleries that make up the Arts Council of Greater New Haven Galleries back when I started this website. They were the Sumner McKnight Crosby Jr. Gallery, Gallery 195, The Parachute Factory, and Haskins Laboratories Gallery. As is … [Read more...]
The Washington Oak (RIP)
Washington Schlepped Here The Washington Oak, New Milford November 12, 2011 When I write my book, how am I going to incorporate all my brilliant title puns? I lose sleep over this question. During a car transfer in the middle of a day-long Appalachian Trail hike, I made it a point to seek out the … [Read more...]
