King Philips Cave at Talcott Mountain State Park, which is incredibly historical as well. Google it!! The view from the big cave is spectacular, can see for miles into the Farmington Valley. Would advise only capable climbers to attempt. The small cave is nice too and easy to access, just before the big cave

>Update, Feb. 22: A previous version of this article stated that the student was arrested for possession of a handgun and illegal drugs. In fact, criminal charges are only being considered for the drug offenses. The article has been updated.

What would change this, could it have been an airsoft gun or something?

We moved from Nashville to CT for work 1.5 years ago, feel free to DM! Overall we are very happy here and plan to stay long-term, though we miss the music and food scenes in Nashville. But the public schools, better teacher pay, and politics are a better fit for us here.

My household made more than enough money to feed myself and my two siblings.

I still went hungry due to neglect and abuse. Sometimes I would ask other kids for the food they didn't want at lunch, like carrots or a milk box. They made fun of me to my face and among themselves but I didn't care, I wanted the calories.

I still would have suffered in school, but I would have learned and accomplished more without the hunger. All I wanted was to get home at three pm and eat as much as I could for 'breakfast.'

These programs are just humane and I am so thankful that even one kid will be helped by them. But I know it will be more.
