NORWALK, Conn. – Every so often we get the urge to clean out Nancy’s photo files. This is one of those times.
See, Nancy hates discarding stuff in general, and her photos… well, ’nuff said.
What follows is a collection of photos from 2014, most of which did not make it onto the site. Some are reminders of stories we’ve covered, others are simply pics for pics’ sake.
We hope you enjoy!
