I grew up in CT.  Mystic is a very beautiful place and the Seaport 
Museum was pretty nice the last time I was there.  Wow...that was 20 
years ago...how time flies...

I wish it was coming to Canada.  But according to
http://www.sourcewire.com/news/85588/ships-clocks-stars-exhibition-in-greenwich-ends-sunday-january-4#.VRN-O_nF-uM,
it is heading to two sites in the USA (Folger Shakespeare Library in
Washington DC and Mystic Seaport Museum in Connecticut) plus the Australian
National Maritime Museum.

Perhaps a trip to Conecticut is in order this fall ...

The public exhibition for this conference Ships, Clocks and Stars: The
Quest for Longitude is apparently coming to the colonies (Canada &
Australia) this year, so us colonials might get a chance to feast on the
Harrison timepieces in all their glory. True clock p**n.
