Can't forget the classics, Milford and New Milford, and I think there's a Waterford? Basically start with a cardinal direction or "New" and then choose either bridge or water and end in a -ford, -town or -ton and you have a CT town name

"17 town names end in the suffix “ford.” They are Ashford, Branford, Eastford, East Hartford, Guilford, Hartford, Milford, New Hartford, New Milford, North Branford, Oxford, Stafford, Stamford, Stratford, Wallingford, Waterford, and West Hartford" (Ted Jackson for Manchester History)

I always find the presence of personal injury attorney ads alongside a stretch of road a good indicator of the safety level of the road lol. Not a perfect metric, more of a shower thought than anything.

So sick of those. The colors are so ugly on the spiked hair lady ads I don't even know her name.

I do enjoy the different themes she puts on her billboards each month / season. I wonder what her annual marketing budget is

Love that cutie. Sometimes she looks like a guy and sometimes like a gal. Whatever they are, they get an A for effort with every ad. I think they are awesome. 😎😍
