The Bunny Fountain

April 14, 2020 by Steve 5 Comments

Trippy Bunny Fountain, Trumbull I have a good friend who used to live in Trumbull. When I put together my Trumbull Town Guide, he alerted me to the Bunny Fountain.

SeaQuest (Closed)

January 31, 2020 by Steve 1 Comment

Trumbull makes this claim quite often, so we’ll go with it. At one point, there existed a Trumbull Land Trust but they … [Read more...]

Concept of Freedom Trail: Trumbull

October 6, 2015 by Steve 1 Comment

Nero Hawley Grave Riverside Cemetery, Daniel’s Farm Road Not that anyone will ever read this page, but I still feel the need to point out that of all the museums and trails and breweries and “stuff,” on this website, there are very few – if any – that I’ve planned to visit, yet haven’t – than this … [Read more...]
