Norman Rockwell, FDR, Lincoln and the Cider House Rules
Wonder what all of the above could have in common? They were all part of a wonderful fall weekend we just had! We visited The Norman Rockwell Museum where I learned about a connection between Rockwell and FDR. We saw Chesterwood, the country home of Daniel Chester French, sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial. And, we went to Ventfort, built by Sarah Morgan, sister of J.P. Morgan - where the exterior scenes for the movie The Cider House Rules were filmed.

Hi Dolores! Wow! You are really on top of your blog following! I just finished this very long post a little while ago. Thanks so much! Glad if you enjoyed it!
Terrific blog about the Rockwell Museum, they used to have wonderful workshops for illustrators, you make me want to go back up and take another look. I really enjoyed this.
Thanks for taking me along on a mini-vacation! I've always wanted to visit Stockbridge and The Berkshires in autumn. Maybe some day! Beautiful photos!
Thank you Susan and Marilee! Sorry I'm so late in thanking you. Glad if you enjoyed the photos. It was certainly a great trip!
