The Northwest Corner of Connecticut

The Litchfield Hills is a bucolic, 1,000-square-mile horse-breeding enclave tucked into the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains in northwestern Connecticut. Every bend of the meandering roads leads to 18th- and 19th- century saltbox farmhouses, red barns, imposing white clapboard mansions, stone walls and quiet lakes. (from Patricia Schultz's "On and Off the Beaten Track - 1,000 Places to See...," Women's Publishing, NY.)
