Blue Back Square

West Hartford Center's newest neighborhood is pretty quiet now.

A Recent Discovery

 I have been going down this street for decades, on the way from West Hartford Center to the highway.  But, I had never noticed this house before.

Does that happen to you?  We are in a place so familiar we don't even notice things.  Then, one day, we turn and -- bang! -- something finally registers.  Glad it did.

Hall's Kitchen

 

Hall's Market is a well-regarded market on West Hartford's Park Road.  

Next door is Hall's Kitchen, which offers cakes, pies, baked goods and other take-out food

LBJ

What a year for LBJs:  Little Brown Jobs.  Wherever I go I am surrounded by LBJs.

I rarely even lift my camera for them, but the barrel is getting empty.

Fairies

We have lots of small visitors in my West Hartford neighborhood.

Farmhouse

 

This farmhouse-style house is down the street.

It has long been one of my favorites.
