Charming Chester

Railway Station Museum
Chester, Massachusetts
Located in the Berkshire foothills, Chester is known as the 'Gem of the Valley'. More on the museum in my next post.

The Majority Of One
Sitting in a pot on the main street was this lone Sunflower.

Waiting For Edith Ann
Do you remember Lilly Tomlin as the 5 1/2 year old Edith Ann? That's what this chair reminded me of...and that's the truth!

Hi Sunny, Yes---I remember Edith Ann... Loved that character.

I love Railroad Stations. My Dad worked for the railroad--so we had 'passes' and traveled mostly by train back in the '50's. I have such good memories of old railroad stations. Can't wait to see what is in your museum.

Have a wonderful day, my friend.
Hugs,
Betsy

Railroad museums are so neat looking. Sure it was very enjoyable to visit.

I remember Lily Tomplin as "one ringy dingy, two ringy dingy"

Edith Ann would love that rocking chair, she was one of my favorite Lily Tomlin characters.

That is a charming little town.

I do not know who Edith Ann is, Sunny - but this rocking chair would be most comfortable for my long neck!
