Hi there, thanks for dropping by! This is Backyard Road Trips and my name is Zack. I’m an author who is trying their hand at blogging. I’ve spent the last few years exploring Connecticut researching my books; Connecticut Lore: Strange, Off Kilter and Full of Surprises and the sequel, More Connecticut Lore: Guidebook to 82 Strange Locations which are both offbeat travel guides to the state of Connecticut. My new book, A History Lover’s Guide to The South Shore is now available. On this blog, I’m hoping to share with you some of my favorite places.
