Connecticut information
Connecticut may be the third-smallest state in the U.S., but it's no
lightweight when it comes to historic landmarks, museums, attractions, and
vacation destinations. If you're looking to maximize your vacation time,
Connecticut can't be beat for a quick getaway--there's so much to experience in
a close, accessible area. This "land of firsts" gave the American nation its
first municipal and town libraries; first turnpike; first medical diploma, Ph.D.
degree, and law school; first newspaper and telephone exchange; first
helicopter; first artificial heart; and, thanks to Yale students, even the first
Frisbee! Visitors to Connecticut, the gateway to New England, will find a
harmonious blend of old and new. Historic whaling towns are a stone's throw from
the glamour and glitz of the world's largest casino. Urban Fairfield County, an
extension of the New York metropolitan region, is bisected by one of the
nation's most scenic highways, the Merritt Parkway.
In 1614, Dutch navigator Adriaen Block was the first European to sail the
Connecticut River, and by 1633, Connecticut's European settlers had founded the
riverside towns of Hartford, Windsor, and Wethersfield. Connecticut had already
been home to Native American tribes for more than 10,000 years. Connecticut
played a prominent role in the American war for independence, serving as the
major supplier to colonial forces. It quickly grew to be one of the new nation's
centers of industry and continues to be home to factories producing weapons, jet
engines, helicopters, hardware, tools, and more. The state's capital city,
Hartford, is the country's insurance capital and home to about 40 major
insurance companies. The American insurance industry was born in Hartford in
1810--largely to protect important Connecticut River shipping interests.
Connecticut offers visitors nearly a dozen different regions to explore. The
Mystic area, a whaling and shipbuilding center in the 17th through 19th
centuries, has ever-popular historic and marine-life attractions and has been an
even more popular draw since Steven Spielberg selected Mystic Seaport for
on-location filming of the movie Amistad. Elsewhere along the state's
Long Island Sound shoreline and along the Connecticut River, visitors will find
spectacular scenery, steam-train rides, beaches, and even a castle.
New Haven is home to historic Yale University, and even Coastal Fairfield
County, a New York City appendage, offers museums, a zoo, and historic mansions
and lighthouses to explore. Connecticut's Housatonic Valley and Litchfield Hills
regions in the western part of the state treat visitors to a look at the early
days of railroads, wine tasting at local vineyards, fabulous
outdoor-recreational opportunities and some of the state's best-loved inns. The
central part of the state, including the Waterbury region and the greater
Hartford capital area, is home to historic houses, a soaring center, apple
orchards, and one of the country's oldest amusement parks still in operation.
Connecticut's "Quiet Corner," in the northeast wing of the state, offers charm
all its own from antiquing to panning for gemstones.
You'll find it's hard to stay for just a day in this state that packs a
wallop in spite of its compact geography.

If possible, always ship convertibles with the top and secured properly. Try to seal any holes or open seams in the top to prevent air or moisture from causing damage. If you cannot raise the top, you should attempt to cover it with a secure fitting tarp that can resist high winds. |
