U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy has walked a long way from eastern Connecticut to hold one of his Town Hall meetings Friday night in Darien with a fellow Democrat, U.S. Rep. Jim Himes at Tilley Pond Park. You’re invited to meet them both at 7 p.m. Friday night at the stone pavilion in the park. “All members of the public are encouraged to attend,” according to an announcement from his office. Murphy may have sore feet, having walked through Bridgeport, Fairfield, Westport, Norwalk and into Darien in his trek across the state. His publicists say he’s “taking to the streets and dirt roads to listen to and get feedback from Connecticut residents.”
