...around Windsor, Old Saybrook, Mystic and Essex. Audiences will also learn about tobacco-possibly more than they care to. Item: those acres of flimsy shade-tobacco tents (which don't quite obscure the dedicated dalliance of Troy and girl at the fadeout) are made of cheesecloth, which filters sunlight and raises the temperature around the plants by 15 degrees...
