Windsor, Connecticut

 Windsor

Connecticut

Windsor is a town in Hartford County, Connecticut, United States.   It was the first English settlement within the state. It borders Hartford, CT. which is the states capital. At one point in time there was a golf course in town originally named Millbrook GC.  It was eventually purchased by another company and renamed but then shortly went out of business.  What bugged me was that the town never took it over.

Here are a few (very few) highlights of the town:

 Interesting.  This sign infers Windsor was the first Connecticut town.  Wethersfield, CT. wishes to differ, saying they were first.

The Loomis Chaffee School is one of the town;s highlights.  An excellent campus and very expensive




 

 

 

A highlight of the town was a gathering of Tibeton Monks constructing a Mandala Sand Painting.  At the end of the process the artwork is destroyed and the sand was dumped into a lake
