Read the story behind the art
I drove all over Lenox looking for a picture and came away with exactly two places I liked: an old stone church and this house on Kemble Street. The house won. Those trees frame it so well that I almost look like I planned the whole thing, and the chimney, well, road, and path on the right give me plenty to look at. For the lower edge of the frame I used a piece of the well, cut into layers and changed in size and angle. I’m pleased with this one. Apparently the search was worth the gas.

“I cleaned every plate, so I suppose that counts as a positive review, even if Exeter was still holding the food crown.”
Read about this meal
Lenox had plenty of fancy restaurant options, but I wanted comfort food, not a meal that required me to sit up straight. Mazcots Sports Bar & Grill sounded more like it. I started with fried meatballs in marinara. They were burnt underneath but still tasty, which is a strange little victory. Then came chicken mac and cheese, much better than the version I had in Chester two weeks earlier. I finished with Snickers pie. I cleaned every plate, so I suppose that counts as a positive review, even if Exeter was still holding the food crown.

Where I ranBerkshire Home Design Center Lot 55 Pittsfield Rd, Lenox, MA 01240
I started near the Berkshire Home Design Center lot and covered 6.50 miles around Lenox in 1:11:03. My watch recorded a 10:55 average pace and 557 feet of climbing. That elevation gain would explain why the first three miles were much faster than the last few. The opening mile was 9:27; by mile four I was at 11:59. I could call that pacing strategy, but the hills might object. It was 34°F, and Massachusetts still got its run, even if it made me work for the entry.
