I've lived off of the center for a couple of years now and was unaware that this post office even…read moreexisted! It definitely doesn't look like a post office, tucked next to a United Bank in a building next to Max Burger. For how small the post office is, it actually has all the amenities and services of any other post office. They have self-service machines in the vestibule for packages and large drop boxes, so you can avoid the line or complete your post office needs in off-hours. Service is actually fantastic; everyone I've interacted with have been super friendly. I was hesitant to go to this post office because of potential parking issues, but I found out that they actually have a lot behind the building.

This post office delivered a package to me inside my (locked) mailbox. The package required a…read moresignature to deliver but instead it was delivered to my locked mailbox. A signature that is not mine was documented, even though it was dropped in my locked mailbox. The package that was inside my locked mailbox was ripped open and contexts removed. Who could have ripped and removed the contents? Is it a coincidence that the item was also signed for someone that is not me and the delivery person left it in my mailbox he had the master key to? If you are ordering something expensive from outside the US, ensure it is not delivered by this location. Per customs the item contents and amount has to be declared on the label.

Blue Back Square is a popular spot in West Hartford. It has restaurants, shopping, entertainment,…read moreand a residential area. There is a hotel and large name stores such as Whole Foods, The Cheesecake Factory, and various others. It's a beautifully maintained area and very pedestrian friendly. People have the option to live, work, and play right in this area. There's a wide selection to choose from, you don't have to leave the area if you don't want to. Parking can be found on street and two garages, all metered but affordable. There are bright murals throughout. A movie theater and a library are within walking distance. There are events such as live music. There are quite an array of things to do and eat and all in walking distance. The area can be busy but for a good reason. I find myself there quite often and enjoy the amenities.

I saw last week on Facebook that Adam River from 95.7 was going to be present and Chaz the Cream…read morePuff man from the Big E Express at the Blue Back Square handing out cream puffs samples from 3:30-5:30 today. I ventured out with my kids to check it out. They thought I was crazy but went with me to see what I was taking about. They both were amazed how big these cream puffs are and the filling is so fresh. I told them the 1st time ever having them was at the Big E back in the day. With today being the opening day for the Big E it was an added touch to the West Hartford community to have a visit from Chaz. Next best thing to driving up to West Springfield tonight. Chaz was so photogenic and super nice and thank you for making my afternoon. I plan to get more cream puffs on Wednesday when I go which is also Connecticut Day at the Big E.

We took the elevator to this level; there is a tween/teen, toddler, and baby section. The baby room is locked from the outside but you can reach over to unlock the door; this is for babies and crawlers. They had some baby toys and books in there. The toddler section has a mini kitchen, fake groceries, baby dolls, doll house, Legos, and toy cars which kept my toddler busy. We put away the toys we played with before we left just to be courteous. We had to print out some paper and it's 10 cents a page. Keep in mind when putting the quantity in the computer, it doesn't specify dollars or pages; it's actually quantity of dollars not pages. This location is nice because it's walking distance to all the stores and restaurants. Overall, a clean and organized library!

I mean, it's an area, the streets and lights I guess could count as service, right? I dunno. Well, I guess I'll talk about everything around here. 2.) What your eyes may see: An intersection, across each street there are businesses. You got chain businesses, you have mom and pop businesses, you have Whole Food's cousin, "Wild Oats." 3.) Impressions: I like Bishops Corner. If you wanna grab food, go shopping, fill up your gas tank and have coffee, this is the center for it!

I think because of WeHa Center and Blue Back Center, Bishop's Corner is probably a very underrated…read moreshopping center in West Hartford. Bishop's Corner has limited shopping, but is filled with restaurants. In terms of shopping, there is a Marshall's, Walmart Neighborhood Center, and Maximum Beverage (a liquor store). There's various restaurants, including Noodles and Company, Qdoba (the only one I know of in the area) and Blue Plate Kitchen. There's a lot of other retailers and restaurants in the strip malls on all sides of Bishop's Corner. Overall, it's very well-kept. Bishop's Corner looks very nice and updated. The only down side I can see to this place is that the parking situation is kind of awkward for most part of Bishop's Corner.

I think it's wonderful that they hosts an event like this for the community. There was something for everyone, from local vendors and food trucks to activities, entertainment, and community organizations.

She's such a great entertainer, and it brought my sister so much joy to see her in person. It was exciting to have such a well known performer as part of a local community event. I also appreciated all of the free giveaways, including stickers, flags, and helpful community resources etc. Overall, the event was well organized, inclusive, and community focused. My sister and I had such a great time that we were already talking about coming back next year before the festival was even over.

This would be a great place to learn and view some of the historical pieces that defines the state of Connecticut.
