A Christmas Tree Shop Express will open in Westfield Meriden Mall, the “express” being a shorthand for a seasonal experiment. If the store does well, it could become a welcome permanent tenant.
Weather and forestry experts say fall foliage in Connecticut may not be as brilliant as it might be, thanks to wet weather during the summer and a warm fall. We hope this does not quell too many leaf peepers, an important tourist operation.
