Terms and Conditions of Use

Welcome to https://connecticutexplorer.blogspot.com/

ConnecticutExplorer.blogspot.com is a personal journal and offers authoritative information published to the world wide web based on the first person accounts and research of its contributors and publisher. Its purpose is to inform about hyper-local locations, sites, tourism, and leisure opportunities in the State of Connecticut and the New England. Its secondary purpose is to entertain.

100% of the textual content on this site is originally produced. But for a smattering of credited public domain photography, the photography featured on this site is 100% original. Connecticut-Explorer sometimes embeds appropriately credited Youtube or Vimeo video content produced by other publishers to supplement the context of its articles. (See Removal of Links Terms below).

What the above means is straightforward: The publisher of ConnecticutExplorer.blogspot.com is the sole owner of the content featured on this website.

The text on this website often expresses the personal opinion of the contributor or publisher. You may find that you disagree with these opinions or the subjects presented.
