Connecticut State Capital
(Hartford,
Connecticut)
Excerpts from Beth:
Another
must-see as the Roadchix take on a new state is the capital
building. Connecticut's (in Hartford) is a typical gold-domed
specimen. The 'chix were lucky enough to get a private tour
(FREE and very extensive).
We were treated to statues of the 'State Hero and Heroine'-Nathan
Hale and Prudence Crandall. We thought that was pretty bizarre.
. . I hereby appoint Kristy and I as our "Official State
Roadtrippers."
The building is so large that many of the offices are housed
in an annex building with a tunnel system (good for those
cold New England winters). Luckily, we managed to find our
way back to the car to continue the journey.
