CTMQ’s Guide to Oxford

2 Comments

Everything Oxford

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” Oxford CTMQ-style… as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. After all, that is the ultimate goal of CTMQ.

What do you know about the town that is most famous for? You can scroll down for my list of things to do in town. Or, as always, you can click on the town’s tag to see what I’ve done.

If I’ve missed anything in town or if anything has closed or changed, please let me know.

    I’d say the Housatonic dam on Lake zoar is something worth looking at.

    Resturant 121 at the oxford airport is a great spot.

    Hi man, Iam really loving the writings on your blog. They are created clearly, easy to consume and remember, despite English being my second language. Cheers.
