Adams Lane, Norwalk CT
January 30th, 2007
I wish there were some good online aerial photos of this area, instead of just this satellite image. This area shows most of my world for six years while growing up. In the lower, left corner is the Silvermine School. Our house was just below the “n” in Adams Ln. We had 2½ acres. The property was a perfect mix of grassy and rocky, woods and fields, flat and hilly. Here’s to Norwalk!

SOB! It looks the SAME from outer space, doesn’t it? Of course, we all know different. I bet the folks who live in our old house (now modernized into a cookie-cutter McMansion) can’t STAND the Glynn’s old crumbling manor. Of course, there are those huge Douglas firs in front of their circular driveway to cover the view. I send a Christmas card every year to Mrs. Glynn and she always sends me a big long letter back. My GOD we were only there for SIX YEARS, which is a nanosecond in our time frame now!
Yes, our yard was perfect. Mom was extremely savvy at picking properties, wasn’t she? Despite the zillions of hours we sat in front of the TV, we also spent many, many hours in imaginative play in the great yard with the natural “cave,” the stone wall, the big, flat glacial rocks, the field that led onto the golf course. It seemed huge to us back then!
