My folks were from Conn., and at one time our family would make the short 2 1/2 hr. trip from NH to visit all of our relatives that lived there. Most are gone now, but I occaisionally go there to see the few that remain. I think that Ill only be in your state once this year, and thats to see the vintage racing in Lime Rock this fall. I know this doesnt qualify me as being a resident, but the time spent there should at least gain me some unofficial status!
