I've Been There, Travels

Western Massachusetts travels

This weekend brought me to the western part of Massachusetts.  The western part is known for the Berkshire mountains and the farm land.  A little over two hours of driving from Boston on some of the scenic and curvy roads of route MA-116 brought me through several small villages that looked like time was standing still from he 16th and 17th century.  I stopped at a small village called Conway, which was very quaint.  The village has a small central road, called Main Street.

After stopping for about 45 minutes to walk around and take some more photos I moved onto to my main destination of the Bullitt Reservation and Chapel Falls, located in Ashfield.  There is a 2 mile (3.2 km) hiking path on the Reservation through a deeply wooded area.  The falls were grand and arriving at the farm house on the other side offered its own unique beauty.
