Awesome photos, antonio! Makes me really miss home - I do miss the greenery of CT. Even in those semi-urban downtown Westport pics, I notice the greenery because I've been seeing nothing but dry, brown hills.

Thanks Antonio for those great pics. I see that that area beyond the bridge looks the same with that old Texaco sign. It's not much different than many years ago. I remember that big furniture store sat up on the hill just as you crossed the bridge. A lot of memories!

I'll never forget going through DT New Canaan, and seeing the church on the right just South of DT with a 100K+ Benz sitting under a banner because they were having a "fund raising raffle" . LOL

New Canaan is one of my favorite towns in CT - if money be damned.

St. Aloysius Church. I don't know about prior years, but for the last 3 years, they've been raffling the "cheap" C-class MB for $100/ticket with a total of 1000 tickets sold.

Mid to late October and early November is peak season, but some years its cut short by a freak storm that sweeps the area too early. So, if there are no freak storms, it should be peak when you visit.
