A few of us from Stratford took a “busman’s holiday” and enjoyed an afternoon of hospitality and cheer. We were greeted by a lively fire, costumed docents, a groaning board ladened with 18th century cakes, fruit breads, hot soup and apple cider. A good number of gentlemen from the 6th Connecticut Regiment displayed their fine uniforms and weaponry. Even the preacher came by with his bible and watchful eye. A good time on a cold day.
