10 Places In Milford, CT You Know You'll Visit This Summer
Geographically Yours Welcome

It's the small city with the big heart. That's what Milford, Connecticut is known as, and this small city has a lot to offer when it comes to summer time. Here are the 10 places you know you're going to visit during this summer vacation.

1. Silver Sands Beach

It wouldn't be a summer in Milford if you didn't spend any time down at Silver Sands! With the boardwalk now connecting to Walnut Beach, Silver Sands is best for both the sunbather and the jogger.

2. Charles Island

You can't have a day planned at Silver Sands without a walk out to Charles Island! Check that tide schedule, and make the short trek out to our beautiful and historic island.

3. Walnut Beach

I swear, we have more than beaches here. But, we have so many good sites, I know you're going to visit them all. Walnut Beach is the go-to spot for a relaxing day at the beach with the whole crew.

4. The Cone Zone

Be honest. Your parents took you here constantly as a kid, and you've been going ever since. The Cone Zone is always a must-stop all throughout the summer.

5. Carvel

Summer and ice cream go hand-in-hand. Right near the beach, Carvel is just as crucial to a Milford summer as The Cone Zone.

6. Mr. Mac's Canteen

Right across from Carvel, you're in for a real treat. Make sure you have some cash on you. Get ready to be served cheap and delicious food cooked and served just like it was during your childhood.

7. Downtown Milford/The Milford Green

The sun will be shining bright over Milford Green this summer. You'll definitely find yourself walking down here, just like the rest of us.

8. The Duck Pond

A popular place for prom pictures and proposals, Milford residents will take advantage of this beautiful sight whenever the sun blesses us with a warm summer day.

9. Connecticut Post Mall

Being one of the largest malls in the state, with 1.33 million square feet, Milford residents are proud of their mall. We sure as hell visit it frequently. It will be no different once the summer months come around and those sweet deals get unleashed.

10. AMF Milford Lanes

With its new, slick design, bowling in Milford has never been so enjoyable. Get a party of friends down to Milford Lanes, and strike in the summer!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
