Re: Connecticut anyone?
Gosh, I'm very late to this thread, aren't I? 
I'm in Andover, on the Eastern side. We moved here last summer and it's very quaint and green...love it. I work in Hartford, Manchester, Norwich, Windham and Waterbury, so I'm all over the state. I feel very at home here now, after being in CT for 2 years. I think i'm staying.

Re: Connecticut anyone?
A few more New Haven tidbits, once you are at the British Art museum on Chapel Street you are near many interesting restaurants, Ibezia is just across the street, expensive spanish food really nice, half a block toward the green is Union League club, expensive french food, Clair's Corner Cornucopia corner Chapel and College is all veggie all the time, and on Crown St. a short walk away is Louis Lunch said to be where the hamburger was invented, simple but has a certain charm, almost next door is a Turkish place Istambul Cafe not fancy with good food, and Caffe Adulis also on College featuring Ethhiopian delights w/ slightly upscale prices. You can pick up a free old-time trolley bus right on Chapel St and get a nice ride around the Yale campus, including the Arts District which has it's own set of interesting places to eat. Lots to see, This British museum is closed Mondays and certain holidays.
