Fairy Tale Cottage in Western Mass

Posted on September 3, 2012 by Rachel • 2 Comments

A rather quick stop, this fairy-tale house is beautiful…even if just seen from the outside. Affectionately called the Tyringham Gingerbread House, it comes straight out of the fairy tales you read as a kid to sit peacefully amidst the rolling hills of western Massachusetts. This was stop 3 on our fabulous road trip back to central … Continue reading →

On either side of the path leading up to the church are religious statues. I’m not … Continue reading →

My family and I went there on our cruise this month(a not-so-penniless activity), but I found out after our visit that you can get into The Citadel for a much better … Continue reading →

After a two hour bus ride from where we were docked in Halifax, Nova Scotia we climbed off the bus into the place that does gray skies better than anywhere else in the world. I don’t know if I’ve ever been to a more photogenic place than Peggy’s Cove. We were only there for a … Continue reading →
