 THIMBLE ISLANDS AND BEN DOVER THE AMERICAN DREAM
Join us for an adventurous 45 minute narrated tour around 25 enchanted islands. In the tradition of an old time story teller Captain Bob retells the stories of the Thimble Islands. Hear about Tom Thumb's island tryst's, how Mother-in-Law Island got its' infamous name and the very real possibility that Captain Kidd may have buried some treasure here in the late Spring of 1699 . The island chain, within a three-mile radius of Stony Creek, has long attracted the rich and reclusive, the famous and infamous, from President William Howard Taft to P.T. Barnum's circus star Tom Thumb to cartoonist Gary Trudeau and his wife, television journalist Jane Pauley. During the Victorian era, the Thimble Islands were hopping with people traveling on steamboats from New Haven to day trip or spend a weekend at one of the island hotels that sprung up during that period. At one point, there was such a demand for islands that people began building manmade ones. Development continued on through the early 1900s until 1938, when a hurricane destroyed the Connecticut coastline and took the lives of several islanders.

The history of the islands has been told orally for generations but there is very little written documentation. That makes the line between fact and fiction some what blurred. Money Island was supposedly its own village back in the late 1800s, with its own chapel and general store. There was also a post office, hotel, barroom and bowling alley on the island. Now, there are some 30 privately owned homes.

We will feature an all you can eat buffet lunch before heading to Mystic CT for a musical production of ” at the Cornerstone Playhouse. This light whimsical musical will uplift your spirit and lighten the load of life’s burdens.
