Here is a portion of FDR's "Four Freedoms" speech.
And commentary about the paintings from the Norman Rockwell Museum.
This building is a "cottage" on the grounds of the museum. It was built by the original owners of the property and is now used for events, weddings, etc.
Sculpture by Peter Rockwell, Norman Rockwell's youngest son is displayed on the grounds of the museum.
The grounds are 36 acres of parklike beauty.
Another shot from the grounds of the museum. Leaf peeping at it's best!
Later in the day, we strolled around the center of Stockbridge. This is an alleyway of shops off of the main street.
Chesterwood. Also in Stockbridge, near the Norman Rockwell Museum, this is the country home of Daniel Chester French who is best known as the sculptor of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC.
This statue of Lincoln is on the grounds of Chesterwood.
Ventfort in Lenox, Massachusetts. This was built in 1893 by Sarah Morgan, sister of J.P. Morgan. The exterior scenes of the Cider House Rules were filmed here.
continued.... a couple more photos in "older posts."
Shot from the porch of Ventfort. I love this photo! (I didn't take this one!)
There's no place like home! Well, this was on the grounds of our temporary home for this lovely weekend! We stayed in Lenox.
A couple more shots of the grounds around our inn. It was hard to leave!
Happy Trails! On our last day, we had a hike in the woods. Then, it was time to head home. A slow meandering drive. Great weekend! Fall in New England!
In front of the Red Lion Inn - Stockbridge.
