The Clark is wonderful, when I was teaching HS I took my students there for a day trip. The hiking is fabulous in that area, have you ever been to Bish Bash falls? There's also Bash Bish falls. Both are close to&nbsp;the Mass./NY border. If you head on over to Stockbridge, there's a cute little restaurant, <i>Once Upon a Table</i>, that serves delicious chowder. Then right outside from there is <i>Peace, Love, and Chocolates</i> for some fab chocolate candies. Hum...that might be the first stop on our travels :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/road-trip-to-me-extended---places-to-visit-in-ma-or-nh#post-1332428 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 11:32:46 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1332428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Northampton is my favorite place in Western Mass. It's just a short hop north up I-91 from the Mass Pike. Amanouz Cafe for Moroccan food. Cathy Cross and Eileen Fisher for shopping. All within a couple blocks radius. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/road-trip-to-me-extended---places-to-visit-in-ma-or-nh#post-1332350 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 04:21:14 +0000 Diana 1332350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I am in Western MA right now!&nbsp; (So, basically exits 1 and 2 on I90 in MA.)&nbsp; There's loads of fun things to do in the Berkshires, but here are a few of my favorites:</p> <p>Tanglewood - summer home of the boston symphony, if you like classical music; next weekend is officially the end of the BSO season but they also do other shows here as well.&nbsp; Or just come some afternoon and enjoy the grounds/have a picnic.&nbsp; I don't think they allow dogs though.&nbsp; :(&nbsp; <a href="http://www.bso.org/brands/tanglewood/features/2014-tanglewood-season/2014-season-overview.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.bso.org/brands/tang.....rview.aspx</a></p> <p>Go to Bartlett's Apple Orchard for the best cider donuts EVER:<br /><a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/bartletts-orchard-richmond" rel="nofollow">http://www.yelp.com/biz/bartletts-orchard-richmond</a></p> <p>This is my favorite restaurant in the area.&nbsp; Totally a hidden gem.&nbsp; It's in the middle of a kind of abandoned looking industrial area, and you'd never know it was there.&nbsp; But the food is AMAZING and the restaurant is super cute.&nbsp; They don't take credit cards, and don't try to go without a reservation.<br /><a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/elizabeths-pittsfield" rel="nofollow">http://www.yelp.com/biz/elizabeths-pittsfield</a></p> <p>There's loads of great hiking trails of all difficulties and lengths.&nbsp; I like mount greylock a lot - usually you can drive up to near the summit and do short trails around the top if you don't want to spend all day hiking.&nbsp; This site has trail maps for greylock and other areas:<br /><a href="http://www.bnrc.net/" rel="nofollow">http://www.bnrc.net/</a></p> <p>There are many cute little towns to explore as well. I like Great Barrington a lot.&nbsp; I also like Williamstown, which is a little bit north from I90 and home of Williams College.&nbsp; The Clark Museum, which is great, is also located here.<br /><a href="http://www.clarkart.edu/" rel="nofollow">http://www.clarkart.edu/</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/road-trip-to-me-extended---places-to-visit-in-ma-or-nh#post-1332323 Sat, 16 Aug 2014 03:27:52 +0000 Karie 1332323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH just told me he has gotten a few more days (5) off, so our road trip to Maine has just been extended - now we have some time to spend in places along the route to Maine. Basically we are going from NY through MA on I90&nbsp;and on up along the I95 corridor&nbsp;through NH to ME. Does anyone know of any good places/towns to visit and spend a few days at along that I95 route in NH? Or on the I90 route headed from west to east in Mass.?</p> <p>All suggestions/recommendations are appreciated! </p>
