Growing up in Meriden we often would drive by the house on Meriden Waterbury Road in Southington hoping to snare a glimpse of the evil boy looking out the window. The movie Haunting in Connecticut was based on the story, but in true “Hollywood” fashion, they completely destroyed a promising theme for what could have [...]

Many of us who grew up in this town have been to Chips Pub. We always loved the food, the atmosphere, just the fact that it was part of Guilford, and many of us were sad to see it go. It was part of lives, one that we won’t forget. But times change, and so [...]

Not the fierce blizzard of 1888, the score of sub-zero nights, or the days blaze of a melting summer sun would break the routine of the Old Leather Man. His clothes were tied patches of leather – 60 pounds of dark, tough hide. Hands bloated, face weathered and wrinkled, eyes white, and the slow pace [...]

The great thing about this whole internet  website thingy is that I get the opportunity to meet new people,  and experience new things.  Shortly, as in within an hour,  of the website going live,  Shoreline Segway contacted me about taking a tour of Guiford aboard a Segway.  Now I can make all sorts of jokes [...]

“The People Shall Be Troubled at Midnight and Pass Away”. Buried in New Haven’s Evergreen Cemetery is the late Mary Hart. There isn’t any mystery of this seamstress’s death – she fell into a coma at noon and finally passed on at midnight on October 15th, 1872. There’s nothing menacing about her life that would [...]

By now you are wondering, where is the Authors picture?  The picture always accompanies the article. Well, I do have the picture of “The Boogeyman”, but I can’t publish it. I mean there is a reason that kids cringe at the mere mention of him.  I mean this dude is UGLY. I mean beyond butt [...]

I am all Italian. Well, I should say I am of Italian heritage. Both my parents were Italian and as far back as I have gone with my “tree” the Moretti’s are 100% Italian. In fact, my father’s parents came over from Italy in the late 1800′s and my father was born in RI in [...]

Since reopening in April, 2000, The Stone House Restaurant has resumed its place as a fine dining establishment. Located mid – way between Boston and New York City, its contemporary cuisine featuring seafood and steak is appealing to both travelers and shoreline residents.

Whitfield’s On Guilford Green is in the center of Guilford – regarded as the most beautiful and historical town on the Connecticut shoreline. This popular dining destination is a true American Café and occupies the entire first floor and patio of a fully restored colonial home built in the late 1700’s.
