From bling to antler horns at Passports

SALISBURY — Christopher Baetz, manager at Passports in Salisbury, pointed to a faux-fur throw as the hot item of this year’s holiday shopping season.

Thad Gray, a Salisbury resident, is the Republican party’s endorsed candidate for state treasurer; he’ll run against the Democrat-endorsed candidate, Shawn Wooden of Hartford.
