Eating tips for Litchfield County CT

Where to go? What to do? Litchfield County is my home, AND its only 1 hr 45 mins from Manhattan. As a real estate broker, not only do I sell house here, but I help people enjoy all the area has to offer. The more I travel to other destinations, iphone in hand, gps in my car, the more I appreciate local people with inside tips. There are some things your iphone won't tell you. I have tried to include websites and addresses, so you can plug the info in your tech device and go. So think of this guide as a helpful local, with all the inside dirt. And while you are enjoying Litchfield county, if you really fall in love with it, check out the real estate section on the back of this guide, then call me and I can help you find the home of your dreams.
