Fly Eagle Fly! Route 66 Hebron Equally handsome from either direction, Eagle Rock stands sentry in Hebron, Just north of the Marlborough line.

140. White Memorial Conservation Center Nature Museum
Stuff White People Like Litchfield (Google Maps location) October 3, 2009 Yet again, I’m forced to remind anyone reading this that there are plenty of things to do in Connecticut, year-round - and with kids.

170. Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center
PequotsePossibly a Bit Too Expensive Stonington (Google Maps location) May 22, 2010 There are maybe 25 or so nature centers around the state and they are all pretty much the same.

Beltane Farm (Closed)
I Got the Vapors From the Vespers Beltane Farm, Lebanon May 16, 2010 Beltane ceased commercial cheese-making in September 2018.

Audubon Greenwich
Where Goldfinches are Made of Real Gold Greenwich (Google Maps location) May 2010 I will likely do a rare revisit of this place.
