More American Dreams in Stonington, Connecticut

American Dreams Gone Boom and Bust in Stonington

Stonington has some exquisite homes. It's located on a narrow peninsula, so houses on both sides of the peninsula have waterfront views. Many of the houses could be featured in Homes & Gardens or Architectural Digest. Some people's American Dreams came true in substantial ways.


The chapel of a cemetery on the road to Stonington. This is where all dreams and plans die. Unless we get to work on them in heaven.

A mansion in the borough. Notice the widow's lookout octagonal room at the very top of the house.

Doors of Stonington. Shops where people buy and sell to make their dreams come true.

    1. Thanks, Elaine! That's exactly what I'm trying to do: to awaken people's sense of adventure in life. There are wonders all around us. I'm trying to be awake to the wonders and point them out to people.
