Here’s what our readers have shared about their experiences with the Hog River, beginning with CTExplored’s publisher’s own experience...
Thomas Elliott A good magazine about Connecticut history.
Hog River Journal Now to figure out if we can change the name of this page to Connecticut Explored or have to start all over!
Ann Smith Congratulations on the new name. It certainly reflects the broad reach of the magazine, including the state-wide scope of the stories and the even larger circle of readers. Few outside of Hartford knew what that Hog River was. Connecticut Explored....right on target!
