This really, really old house
One of the great things about living in New England is the sense that history is just around every corner. I took a picture of the oldest house I've been able to find, so far. It is in Fairfield, CT and I think it is absolutely charming:

Yup, about 1690. Fascinating, isn't it?

If I'm not mistaken, the actual oldest house in Connecticut is in Guilford.
