Hey, it's good to be back home again ~

Remind anyone of a song, or am I showing my age 😁 ?.  Our trip east was a good one, though we should have taken an extra day or two.  We packed a lot of fun in just three days.  Over the five day period, DSO said we traveled 1,600 miles.

I will give you the Reader's Digest condensed version of the trip

Norman Rockwell Museum . . . 



Not your typical Rockwell painting.  He painted for the Edison Mazda lighting division of General Electric.


Sculptures by Rockwell's son Peter.


On his tongue, it says "Peter made me".

The Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge . . .




An iconic New England church . . .


Hancock Shaker Village . . . 





Mount Greylock, the highest point in Massachusetts . . . 


Monument stairway.


Can I now say I was on the Appalachian Trail?


Gorgeous views from the base of the monument.  Yes, we stayed at a pet friendly resort 😄.  Ernestine is a great traveler.


Sturbridge Village . . . 

I'm not sure why, but I only took a couple pictures.

Carriage ride . . .



We also took a drive to Wareham where DSO bought his hotrod kit almost six years ago, and a trip to Woolen Memories which I will share in my next post.  You can see/read some about my visit there on Nancy's post.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
Lauren
