I’m a huge fan of trains and Connecticut’s push for CTrail. I’ve never had a compelling reason to take the new(-ish) … Read more

Usually, after the completion of a year, I do some silly write-up about places which closed, surprising news of the year, throw in a few snarky comments about how everything is stupid, voila, new article. Classic Journalism. But it’s 2020. We’re officially In The Future. And it’s got me thinking about my time in New … Read more
