Back in the USA.
Note: This is an updated version of the most recent post to allow me to include a better video...
“You claim New England’s a pretty place? Think again. Oh, it’s fine for hiking for camping: it’s got all those swell bubbling brooks; it’s peaceful and clean and colorful. But, look, when it comes to something truly important, like the game of golf, these northeastern states can be downright grotesque.”
Our last few days on the New England road, after leaving Montreal, was through Vermont again ... more typically-New England charming towns, left-leaning politics, and views that have greened before our eyes...and into Massachusetts to do the Illustrators Trail: Eric Carle, Norman Rockwell, and Dr. Seuss museums. And more bookstores. (18 independent ones in all, each one unique.)
I have created a video of some memories from this leg of our trip. Photos are unedited but I want to share them before I end this travelogue and begin work on the travel journal. And the garden is calling. Video is after the photo below.
The view from Norman Rockwell's Museum site. New England's such a pretty place.
Note: the video below starts with 4 or 5 blurry photos that I can’t seem to make better. It clears up.
