Rodent Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) The spouse planned an East Coast fall color trip in 2016. One of the stops was Lenox, MA. Once I found out how close we were going to be, I requested a side trip to Stockbridge and Great Barrington (Arlo owns the church where Alice and Ray Brock lived). Great fun!

Keef Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I just listened to this for the first time in my 50 years. My wife is from upstate New York (Hopewell Junction/Fishkill area) and she confirmed it was a thanksgiving tradition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
