| The Mount |
Today's New York Times Travel Section has an article on the winter season in the Berkshires. It's a nice tour of cultural activities in Western Massachusetts.
Ventford Hall and The Mount, two of the first house museum posts on this blog, are mentioned. I liked reading once more about the interesting history of each and was reminded again of how many important historical homes come close to demolition.

The author and I did disagree on Ventford Hall. It's way down on my list of beautiful house museums. Perhaps in the last three years they've done a lot to restore it's original luster or based on his wintry night dance soiree images, Id say the author has a great imagination.
Thanks to the article I've added another museum in the area to my long list of Massachusetts house museums : Arrowhead, Herman Melville's home in Pittsfield.
