Over the Berkshires and through the woods…

We are traveling northwest to the town of North Adams.
(lower right arrow to upper left arrow)

This is what happened along the way; a pit stop at THE Yankee Candle Store in South Deerfield. A bathroom stop ended up being an over an hour adventure.
(Last year’s trip led us to The Vermont Country Store; once you go in you can’t get out!

Room after room, theme after theme, shop after shop. Almost as good as Disney Land. Ha! I just linked this with an About article and it likened it to Disney World; looks like I am not the only one with that reaction.
It is a wonderfully run place where photographs aren’t shunned as they sometimes are, and the upbeat feeling is contagious.
As always, click to enlarge…

reply tulipsinspring wrote on Jul 24, ’09 Magical! What a beautiful assortment.LOL I was about to post when I saw the first person used the word “magical.” I didn’t see that before I wrote it, but it’s still the only word I can think of to describe it. I never would leave that place! 🙂
