Hello from the Berkshires

[Glitter Brunello Super Moderator Find all posts View Profile Close Glitter Brunello]

There is still plenty to do on the weekends up here, and the snow is beautiful. Ponds at Fox Hollow hasn't changed since I was last here 5 years ago. The two bedroom is clean and very spacious, the master bed is comfortable, decor is completely dated (1970s) but I don't care. Our unit has relatively new kitchen appliances.

We saw a fabulously well done comedy tonight, does anyone remember Charles Ludlam's Ridiculous Theatre Company? The show is running through end of March, worth a trip up here!

Shakespeare & Company | 33rd Season in Lenox, MA

Great food as always - we hit my favorite, Chez Nous, on the way up last night. Tonight we tried Nudel and it was wonderful (small plates and pasta, no reservations).

I didn't know the Berkshires even has its own distillery, unfortunately they don't (yet) do tours:

Berkshire Mountain Distillers

Here is a picture from our front door taken just as the sun started setting today:

Last time I was in that area there was a real Champion outlet and when I say real I mean it was what outlets should be with discounts that were 80% off. If it is still there it would be worth going to.
There was also a cool Photon laser game which I do not know why I took the life time membership since I have never been back after the first time. I think the reason I got the life time was cause they take your picture and put it in a protected license card. Every few years I find the card in my draw and it reminds me of that week end.

Yes, there is a big outlet mall - Lee Premium Outlets. I haven't heard about the laser game, but if you want to enjoy your lifetime membership come on up and use my extra days

This was not a mall it was one store and it was what out lets should be with discounts over 80% off. Much was in huge boxes, Cloths went so fast they did not make it to the shelf. I am ot sure if Champion is still around

BTW thanks for the offer but we are going to Cabo this week

Why does snow look better when it isn't at your own house? Enjoy!

We drove by O n S but I didn't drive in. Not going to North Adams this trip - the drive up was long and we are sticking pretty close to "home." We are headed to West Stockbridge for dinner tonight to a place I've not been before but has great reviews... Rouge. Menu looks so good - I'm hungry after getting starved at the Cranwell's "spa lunch"
