We love your videos about our historic landmarks -- Old Newgate Prison, Drake Hill Flower Bridge, and the old school buildings in Bloomfield. Looking forward to seeing more and visiting these spots ourselves.

Thanks for showcasing these historic Connecticut schoolhouses! Hopefully they will be preserved for future generations. Imagine if each week a different local school could bring their students on a field trip to visit these buildings -- I bet the kids would enjoy seeing what the schools of the past were like. A living history lesson!

I will have to research that. This particular place opened around 2000 by some local people who were very dedicated to raising butterflies. It's quite an experience to have them all flying around, sometimes landing on you. Definitely worth a visit! Thanks for watching!

Lani, since you're so active I thought that I would mention something I find very rewarding: I enjoy volunteering in Bicycle Collectives. These are organizations who promote earth friendly transportation while serving to inspire underprivileged youth. They will teach you everything you need to know, and you will meet wonderful people in the process. I've volunteered in many of these. I also have enjoyed (and also recieved the benefit of) teaching language as a second language such as English.

Ein toller und informativer Bericht. Danke für`s zeigen. Für meinen Bericht brauchte ich nicht so weit weg fahren. Den fand ich, nur durch Erzählungen und den Fund einer entsprechenden Familienchronik meiner Frau, nur wenige 100 Meter von unserer Wohnung entfernt in einem ex Munitionsdepot. Trotzdem dauerte es mehrere Jahre bis ich alle sichtbaren Puzzleteile beisammen hatte. Vieles liegt leider unter meterhohen Erdschichten verborgen. Diese wurden seitens des Militärs zusammengeschoben. Dieses Gebiet ist seit geraumer entmilitarisiert und jetzt der Öffentlichkeit frei zugänglich. Aber, schaut selber was ich gefunden und in einem Kurzfilm festgehalten habe. Ich freue mich auf Euren Besuch. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r62CYNepvc2zcqM.htmlsi=8dD4lq4sIRGh-HEz
