          PEEKING AT LEAVES!

 We just couldn't sit still! After escorting

90 wonderful people on a Travelworld

cruise to New England and Canada just

last week my wife and I are now taking

a bus load of adventure seekers to NH.

We've come to look at the beautiful leaves

but that's just a small part of this excursion.

On Thursday we visited Chesterwood. It's

the home, garden and studios of Daniel

Chester French in Stockbridge, MA. If you

don't immediately recognize his name you

should certainly recognize his work! French

was the sculptor of the statue of Abe Lincoln

sitting in the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, 

the Minuteman statue in Concord and about a

hundred other monuments! We saw the clay

and plaster forms used as the basis for the

the finished cast monuments and the beautiful

gardens surrounding his home. Afterwards we

toured the nearby Norman Rockwell Museum.

Best known for his Saturday Evening Post

magazine covers Rockwell's treasured art work

pieces on on display here year round. A real

look and feel of Americana today! I'll try to

include a couple photos but you're got to get

yourself on one of these Travelworld tours

to truly enjoy our country's treasures. I'll

try to keep checking in, internet permitting!

Hope all your NEWS is good!

you do and that all your NEWS
