Well, it looks like Police Chief Foti Koskinas and I are wrong.
If you looked at this morning’s “06880 On the Go” video, you saw intern Colin Morgeson asking random folks random questions about Westport.
One of them was about the towns that border ours. “Norwalk, Fairfield, Weston, Wilton,” they asserted. Colin nodded, and congratulated them.
At the Farmers’ Market, he happened upon our top cop. Foti added “Easton.”
I was standing nearby. I was surprised, but thought about it. Of course: that stretch of Easton Road just past Catamount led into the corner of Easton where Helen Keller once lived.
So when my turn came, I confidently added “Easton.”
Nope!
As Evan Stein clearly points out, that stretch of Route 136 actually runs through Weston.
Before posting, I did a quick map search. Too quick, as it turns out.
Colin was right.
I was wrong.
Mea culpa.
And yeah, you can say it: #fakenews.
Dan, You’re allowed ONE mistake every 50 years. This will count as the first one.
Dan,my dear mom,often took us,’that same corner of Easton Rd.past Helen Keller’s house, she too, always ‘that was part of
Easton’..:-)
