Mount Greylock… last part.

Bascom Lodge, haven for hikers and climbers on top of the mountain..

I could have cared less…. but the husband wanted to check it out.

I was hoping for a warm respite from the wind inside.

But to be honest it was pretty damned cold even in the building. Notice everyone is having coffee with their coats still on.

There’s a fireplace, people! Light the damned thing.

We could have stayed and ordered a $17 grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, but elected to move on.

That is, I elected to move on…. and jogged halfway to the car through the biting wind only to realize that the husband hadn’t moved an inch and was standing outside the lodge jaw jacking with other tourists with the the car keys in his pocket.

Grrr.

Not to mention Brrr!

Jog back to the lodge, grab the husband mid sentence…. and pull.

You know all those people who say women talk too much? They’ve never met my husband.

The man would talk to a tree stump. And probably has.

Seriously…. conversation in -10 wind chill is over rated.

Nestled in the warm car, the ride down the mountain was as pretty as up.

We passed a lake…

And some nice farm land.

On our way to the next destination.

It’s only day 4 remember?

We were gone a week.

  1. Here I am thinking you’re still there but I just realized that these are photos and description for your trip in September, correct?

    Btw; You’re very pretty! You weren’t exaggerating about your Farrah Fawcett hairstyle, huh?!

    1. We were in the Berkshires from Oct. 13th to the 20th. I never post while on vacation, we’re too busy! But it’s taking me this long to slog through all my pictures!
      And no… I’m a big hair girl all the way!!

      1. Oops – Not September but earlier October.

        Very wise not to post while on vacay; that way you’re definitely “in” the moment.

        Your big hair is very becoming. I looove big hair too. 💕

      2. Thanks! I’m not really trying to hold on to the 80’s but my hair is naturally thick and curly so if I don’t do anything I’d look like a geriatric Shirley Temple….. or a giant poodle. Either way, not very flattering!

  2. Well at least you mentioned food this time though even I find $17 a bit too much for a cheese sandwich!!
    You complain about Florida heat and humidity and now you are complaining about how cold it is in Mount Greylock–make up your mind young lady!!

  3. Holy crap, the koala picture stopped me in my tracks laughing! I was going to make a comment about how much I “enjoy” running into people like your husband when I absolutely hate having conversations with strangers, but shocked koala made me lose my train of thought…
