Southport, CT

For those of you at home who aren't likely to see this in person, these are photos of the town where I work. Southport used to be populated by wealthy ship captains with big, expensive houses and all the things that go with that lifestyle. Today it's pretty much just populated by other well-to-do people.

This is, in my opinion, the prettier of the two churches.

In many ways this is a pretty typical house here. It's one of the larger ones, but it reflects the nice landscaping, the love of natural shingle roofs, and the bizarre attachment to white paint that exists in Southport.

These are two views of the harbour. It's a very pretty area, and a lot of people take lunch in the adjacent park space when the weather is nice.
