No resisting the Sandman’s call ... )

Beautiful profile of a special part of America ... thank you, Mrs. Bear.

I’ve been to Boston a couple of tiimes, and spent a few days in rural areas with small towns and white steeples dotting the countryside in snowy winter.

Real maple syrup ... winding roads and wooded hills ... old, old buildings and stone walls.

I’m a Westerner, but dang me if New England doesn’t feel like home, too.

Happy Warm Fuzzy Massachusetts Wednesday, everyone.

"At the Northern-most tip of Cape Ann lies the colorful seaside village of Rockport. The town is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean on three sides with Boston just about 40 miles away. Shops and galleries surround Rockport's charming harbor, which is still home to an active fishing fleet. the town is one of the country's oldest artist colonies, and boasts some of the most widely painted seaside landscapes in the world, including the coastal shack known as Motif #1."

About 15 years ago, a friend and I visited New England. Most of our Massachusetts time was spent in the historical areas of Boston, Concord, Lexington and Salem. I need to plan another trip to visit the beautiful small towns.
