There comes a time in many homeowners’ lives when it’s just time to move on to the next home. Maybe it’s because of a job change, the arrival of a kid (or more kids), a marriage or divorce, or you just don’t like where you live anymore.

Scents of pumpkin spice lattes and warm apple cider have started to fill the air, sweaters populate the fronts of closets, and trees prepare to unveil the full extent of their beauty by changing leaf colors from green to vibrant hues.
But before you cozy up with a fleece blanket and your favorite horror film, it’s crucial to tackle a few home maintenance projects.

No matter how many great political or lion-eating-dentist costumes we’ll see this year, being an adult at Halloween can be a bit of a bummer.

Looking for someplace to spend quiet time alone? This deserted Connecticut mill town is just the ticket – as long as you don’t mind the company of a few ghosts.
Johnsonville, which is actually located in the midst of East Haddam, was a small, but thriving mill town established in 1802. The community was home to the Neptune Twine and Cord Mill that made binding rope for fishing, and used the Moodus River nearby as a power source.

Back in the mid 1990s after my wife and I moved to Fairfield County, Connecticut from Manhattan, I noticed the decline in housing prices further from the first express stop in Stamford, CT.
I worked on an updated version of the concept for this weekend’s New York Times Real Estate section: What’s Your Commute Time Worth? They did an amazing job on the graphic.
