I Love This House Fetzer Falls at the Fetzer Property, Burlington May 2015 Writing CTMQ has been a great way for me to meet some really interesting people over the years.

Burlington Trail Master!

I Have Mastered Burlington Burlington Trail Master April 2008 - November 2015 I have a painful admission. Becoming a Burlington Trail Master didn't excite me as much as I thought it would.

Sessions Woods/Negro Hill Brook Falls

Falls so Cool They be Ice Sessions Woods Falls, Burlington February 1, 2014 [Note: For my Waterfalls pages, I’m using the town designation used by the Connecticut Waterfalls 2013 guidebook.
