A Tale of Two Coats: Living History with Historian Dayne Rugh on Sunday May 17th @ 2pm at the Stanley-Whitman House, 37 High Street, Farmington CT.

📖 Rugh will open in character, presenting in the first person as Colonel Durkee in period regimental clothing for thirty minutes, bringing the Revolutionary era to life inside a c. 1720 National Historic Landmark. He will then step out of character for an illustrated presentation drawing on his biography, John Durkee: The Forgotten Story of Connecticut's Bold Man from Bean Hill, the first definitive account of a Norwich-born colonel who served under General Washington, fought in both the French and Indian War and the American Revolution, and helped shape the course of a nation.

🍺 There was a time when a bartender “buying a round” was the ultimate gesture of welcome. It was a handshake in a glass. An invitation to pull up a stool and stay a while.

If you’ve been waiting for a reason to put some miles on your Connecticut Field Trip Passport or finally join the club, your invitation to good times is calling. Don’t let it go to voicemail.
