Autumn Rambles

New England

By Tougias, Mike & Tougias, Michael & Tougias, Mark

Publishers Summary:
With a goal of compiling the best places to view the amazing blaze of autumn color that New England is known for, brothers Michael and Mark Tougias offer 15 easy-to-follow routes in six states. Hand-drawn maps lead the rambler through some of the best (and often lesser-known) areas for finding free fall shows in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Take the "Quiet Corner, Northeast Connecticut" section, for example: "Route 169 is as scenic a back road as you will find in southern New England and it is an easy drive from the New York City area or from Southeast Connecticut. Rolling hills, village greens, woodland trails and a diverse assortment of historic sites await your discovery. Some truly first-class inns, restaurants and shops are in this pocket of Connecticut called 'The Quiet Corner.'" Highlights are listed for each of the tours, and for Route 169 these include hayrides, hilltop views, quiet villages, the Prudence Crandall Museum, Roseland Cottage, Old Trinity Church, pumpkin picking, a wolf's den, Golden Lamb at Hillandale Farm, art museums, apple orchards, and the Brayton Gristmill. Loads of additional resources and accommodations listings are included with each tour. --Kathryn True
