Book Description

April 10, 2008
Now, 42 day trips, each accompanied by a made-to-order picnic, fall into one of 11 categories: Arts, Music & Theater; City Walking Tours; Fall Fun & Foliage; Hiking & Biking; Historic Homes & Gardens; Mystic; Shopping; Special Interest; Spring Wildflower Hunt; Water Fun and Wineries.

Cruising Connecticut combines an eclectic selection of places to visit with the fine art of picnicking. From hunting spring wildflowers to wine tasting from hiking and biking on miles of trails to tubing and kayaking on our waterways from city walking tour to country drives from old homesteads to unique museums. And, who would think of picnicking in the middle of a shopping trip or at the theater!

The 2nd Edition has been UPDATED, including hours, admission fees, picnic areas, and attractions, and EXPANDED with two new day trips and recipes contributed by Connecticut food professionals.


Editorial Reviews

Review

You may know that Connecticut has a Clocktower Museum, but did you know we have one because two packrat brothers couldn't stop collecting, so they started buying museums in which to house their stuff? And you may know that the state is loaded with nice little picnic spots, but did you know how to find them? Connecticut is full of such little gems, and Jan Mann has gone out to find them. Plus, she's sweetened the pot with some quick though tasty recipes. Now, why didn't I think of that?

About the Author

Jan Mann, Writing has been a part of Jan's life since age nine, when she submitted a poem to the children's poetry section of the Hartford Times newspaper, and promptly received her first rejection. But, what a rejection a hand-written letter from the poetry editor encouraging her to continue writing. As an adult, Jan founded the Open Circle Writer's Group and is a member of Connecticut Authors and Publishers Association.

Along with writing, Jan has long had a passion for day tripping and enjoyed many years of designing special outings for friends and family before embarking on the adventure of writing a day tripping book.
