This weekend, 1/14/07, stopped at Boothe Park in Stratford CT. One of the Boothe family members fought in the Civil War and died at Barlow's Knoll in Gettysburg. The family eventually donated the land for the park as well as a few very interesting buildings on the property. One is a lighthouse. One houses quite a few interesting collections of items including a collection of Civil War artifacts. The old toll booth from the Merritt Parkway was moved to the park and actually looks pretty there.
