This delightful eatery, Storrowton Tavern is located in a museum of historic buildings in East Springfield, Massachusetts offers traditional New England fare. Friends of ours who live nearby guided us here where the four of us feasted on Yankee Pot Roast, Fried Oysters, and Roast Duck L’Orange. The tavern is housed in buildings that date from 1789 and 1822 and exude colonial elegance!

After dinner we wandered through the quiet streets marveling at the historic 18th and 19th Century buildings that have been rescued from other locations and brought here to create Storrowton Village on the grounds where The Big E, the Eastern States Exposition happens every fall. We will not still be in the area then but hopefully, with family and friends nearby we’ll get to experience the fun of it one year. In the meantime it was fun to explore the area without the crowds!

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
