CTMQ’s Guide to Windham

Everything Windham I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state.

406. Edward A. Card Photography Museum

Card Catalog Windham (Google Maps location) January 5, 2019 Okay procrastination, you've got me. You've got me good. Fortunately, very few people read the vast collection of CTMQ museum pages. Yeah, it's true. Even though this website began as a blog in 2006 chronicling my visits to Connecticut's wide and wild … [Read more...]
