Yeah what Bass said. It's colder up here and if asked I might just take a trip up to meet you for a beer. I am sure we can find some others to come with us too. Just gotta set it up and they will come.

Maybe some of us CT folk can meet up with you in Glastonbury somewhere. I know a few good restaurants there as well. Such as...
- - - "Max Amore" Is My personal pick. Great Italian fare, good Martini and Wine list and desserts are made on the premises and to die for! Friend of mine used to manage that place.
- - - "Bomboleao's" Is a upscale Latin-american/spanish place with some good appetizers and a nice bar. Happy hour seems to be good there, with lots of good eye-candy
- - - as JCR mentioned, I have heard good things about that "J Gilberts" place too, but i havent been there just yet. There are also several chain restauants on Main st like Chill's, Bertuccis pizza etc etc.
I could probably meet up sometime late next week. Any other CT owners want to meet up?

Whew at first I thought you were moving here . Usually people move out west not the other way around. I was going to tell you not to come

Anyway, I might be up for some time out from family and house work. It all depends if the wife is delivering at the time. Let us know which night you may be up for some S2k hospitality!

So basically what everyone else said above, Glastonbury is a pretty nice new england town. Right outside of our capital of Hartford. Most of the residents are on the wealthy side. You can visit www.ctnow.com for events in the area.

Btw, bundle up. Its getting cold again. Temps in the 30s. No top down driving here.
