Concepts of Art Lenox Judaica

Two decades ago in the village of Lenox, Massachusetts, Lynda Strauch, with her two young children, opened Concepts of Art. It was for her a business venture that combined two of her passions, art and Judaism. From a modest start, Concepts of Art/Lenox Judaica has grown to include several thousand Jewish ceremonial items, fine art, and jewelry, showcasing artists and products from Massachusetts to Jerusalem. Each item is personally chosen: from whimsical to elegant, from modestly priced to museum quality.

Mohawk Trail

Scenic highway along Route 2, from Williamstown to Orange.

Reviewed By bbggtt

I have not been on the trail for a few years, I am looking forward to taking my daughter and her children to explore the fossils and the hairpin turn, the grandchildren are into geology and this trail has a lot to see, they love natural beauty and are excited to do this during the summer, we are all into hiking and seeing all that the trail offers, we hope to stay over night, so we can slowly explore the area. Great place for many different likes, anyone who goes needs to check out all the trail offers, food, shopping and outdoor experiences. Cannot wait!!!!!

Old Kings Highway

The Old King's Highway, Cape Cod Route 6A, is on the northern, or bay side, of Cape Cod and winds its way through some of the oldest villages in America: Bourne, Sandwich, Barnstable, Yarmouth, Dennis, Brewster and Orleans. Many of the homes and churches along this tree-shaded road are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Ol Cape Cod... as the song goes, and when you travel down route 6A, you will see just that. The road is quaint, slower, nice homes, and shops here and there (not too many). Begin in Sandwich and enjoy a 30 - 40 MPH curving road stepping back into a slower, leisurely ride all the way to Orleans where Route 6A now becomes part of the State Highway Rt 6 all the way to Providence. Enjoy this road!

Charles River

A nature reservation covering 950 acres along both sides of the Charles River offers bicycle and jogging paths, 12 tennis courts, six swimming pools and the popular Hatch Memorial Shell with live concerts.

Reviewed By McHopper - Tallahassee, United States

We go every year to see the Head of the Charles River Regatta, a "world event" that attracts thousands from all over the globe to compete and watch this adrenaline pumping exciting event. The Charles River is filled with the long skinny boats of one, pairs, fours and eights with coxswains wailing at the rowers to give it their all toward the finish line. The banks and bridges of the Charles River stream with crowds of college students and families who enjoy several days of boat watching and races and shouting encouragement to their favorites. Booth after booth offer everything from seafood, hotdogs and hamburgers, wraps, and more to free samples of new products like fizzy maple drinks and healthy veggie snacks. Being outside and gathering at the Charles River, sitting in the trimmed grasses to view the shimmering river and the races or walking down the tree-lined paths with the sun shining down through sprinkles of yellow leaves is the epitome of feeling happy.
