Reply to The Sonic in Manchester is going downhill fast by TEKC0R
So they tore down a Weight Watchers in my old hometown to build a Sonic (irony). My town was know for endless fastfood choices and their fries were crap and so their business dwindled. (Fries make or break you there, lol.)
Then the franchisee violated their franchise agreement buying food and supplies outside the franchiser and the franchiser shut them down.
In the end a couple years later the closed Sonic was torn down and a Panera Bread was built, lol. No loss, Sonics are terrible.

There are exceptions. Some Subways are great and I bet you were a big part of their success.
You can complain about Chick-fil-A’s stance on political issues, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that every Chick-fil-A has fantastic employees and service.

Still makes no sense. Just tell them it was never driven or registered back in CT.
Proof of registration is not a prerequisite for registration unless you're trying to avoid sales tax without a title or something.

I love Dr. Voukides at Middletown Family Dental. Her and the dental hygienist Alicia are the best dental providers I've ever seen. Alicia is so sweet and really gentle while being so thorough. Dr. Voukides is just insanely nice and always explains what's happening while she's in your mouth. Plus she gives you time to answer her if she asks you a question lol.

I second this one. Norwich has a large chinese population because of the casinos and you get some legit good real chinese food here.

Reply to comment by bunkerbash in Has anyone moved out of CT because of seasonal depression? I enjoy CT but I’m only happy during June- august. by [deleted]
Yeah, but it’s not in the 30’s in April, may, oct/nov/dec. at least most of the time. If you’re seriously considering “leaving this plane of existence” please get help. Life is worth living, if you really feel that way some professional help may be what you need. Hope that your feelings improve and it all becomes more manageable!

Hi! So you have some options.
The Salisbury area has access to the Taconics and the AT. Classic NWCT hikes like Lion's Head, Rand's View, and Bear Mtn are easy to get to from Salisbury. You also can dip into Mass/NY for great mountains like Brace & beautiful waterfalls like Race Brook Falls. Lodging here, whether Air BnB or the White Hart Inn, won't be cheap.
On the cheaper side and less rural would be staying in the Torrington/Winsted area. Here you can get to Haystack mtn and Campbell's falls in Norfolk, excellent views from People's State Forest, and you can head down to Litchfield for more trails at White Memorial (plus tons of great restaurants and shopping).
You could also consider staying in Kent, which is a beautiful town with some shopping and restaurants. It's a little less mountainous but still has great views by Caleb's Peak and Pine Knob, or head into Macedonia Brook state park.
Hope this helps!
