CTMQ’s Guide to Easton

CTMQ’s Guide to Easton

Everything Easton I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling guides for each town in the state. I plan on “completing” Easton... as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. After all, that is the ultimate goal of CTMQ. What do you … [Read more...]

Easton’s Town Trails

Easton’s Town Trails What up, Easton? Can you hear me? Probably not, since the town seems to be infamous for poor cell service. What's weird about that is that despite the fact you can't find Easton on a map, it's bordered by the well-known and heavily populated Fairfield, Trumbull, and is mere feet from touching … [Read more...]

Aspetuck Land Trust Intro

Aspetuck Land Trust Bridgeport, Easton, Weston, Fairfield, Wilton & Westport Knowing what I know of Easton and Weston, I would certainly expect there to be a large and organized land trust there.

Go Easton Young Man Easton (Google Maps location) April 10, 2010 For some unknown reason, I originally had this place written up as a non-museum and filed it away in the hinterlands of CTMQ. I don't know what I was thinking as this place (for our purposes) is a great little zoo (of sorts) to take your kids too. … [Read more...]

NHL: Ida Tarbell House

Ida Tarbell House CT National Historic Landmark Easton (Private Residence) I really enjoyed this National Historic Landmark. For one thing, the drive to (and from) it through Easton is beautiful. (Seriously, we drove from this house over to Helen Keller’s house and it felt like we were in Maine or something), but … [Read more...]

Helen Keller’s House

Helen Keller’s House

Can’t Hardly See or Hear the Road From The House Easton A rarity: I sought out a house that does not appear on any list or any trail nor does it have a museum inside it. It is merely the house that Helen Keller lived in during her final years on this great blue marble called Earth. That’s all, nothing more. … [Read more...]
