CTMQ’s Guide to Killingly

Everything Killingly (and Therefore Danielson too) I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state.

Killingly’s Town Trails Intro

Killingly’s Trails Killingly me softly... I find Killingly to be one of the most fascinating towns in Connecticut.

118-(and counting)-Year-Old Lemon Tree

A Real Lemon Party Logee's Greenhouse, Danielson June 3, 2011 I feel badly for people who live in Danielson. Ever since The Karate Kid, everyone must say the name of the town like "Daniel-san!" And that must be annoying. Almost as annoying as the fact that Danielson isn't even a real town but is instead the … [Read more...]

Zip’s Diner

Zip’s Diner Dayville section of Killingly July 6, 2011 I realize that these very few and far between classic diner posts may just look like an excuse to post even more pictures of Damian. Eh, you may be right. So far I’m two for two in diner experiences as far as Damian being well-behaved and not having a … [Read more...]
