We lived for 3 years in Ridgefield CT. There was a Rev War burial ground in the front of the community. Hadn’t yet developed my interest in that history, so really didn’t take good advantage of it. Warm memories of driving back roads with a book of maps and the gift shop up north of Danbury.
We moved to Danbury Ct. one year ago to be closer to my husband’s widowed mother and sisters. I am from upstate NY. I love it here! I drive the back road to Ridgefield every day for the Latin mass (SSPX Ridgefield) - we live in a wooded community across the road from The Matrix, formerly Union Carbide headquarters - a scenic area with wooded ridges and fields and horse farms. A red fox ran in front of me at dusk a few nights ago. Any tips? Where is the gift shop located?
Danbury has a large hispanic and Brazilian community. I don’t know of they are legal or not, however they are hardworking decent folk compared to the vulgar and crude section 8 types in the Capital District of New York State. This does not give them a pass if they are not legal, but the difference is striking.
