Eastford is reconsidering its status as one of two remaining "dry" towns left in Connecticut. The town of 1,700 will vote on a referendum Monday that would allow a proposed organic restaurant to serve wine and beer. (AP)
I had no idea we still had "dry" towns. Huh.
Sometimes old attitudes and traditions die hard. I wonder if it will pass?

stomv,
There are no resturants in dry towns.You can't make a profit in a resturant without a liquor license.
The dry towns left over the last 25 yrs are very small and mostly wealthy little hamlets.We use to call them Blink your eye towns.If you bllinked while driving through them you missed them.
Huh. The article says Bridgewater. Are there actually three "dry" towns, or did the article get it wrong?
