You Need Guts to Go Here… Um, No You Don’t New Haven (Google Maps location) August 2010 Connecticut museum visit #177. I'm not sure how much the School promotes this anymore, but from what I can find, they do still have rotating exhibits.

Hall Memorial Library Exhibits
All Hail Hallowed Hall at Hall Ellington (Google Maps location) May 19, 2010 Connecticut museum visit #168.

151. Lamothe’s Sugar House
Sweeeeeeet! Burlington (Google Maps Location) February 7, 2010 It just occurred to me that if I assume I go to about 600 museums in Connecticut when all is said and done - which is a fair assumption - I'm now about one quarter done.
