Western Massachussetttttts

Before I leave the area, I wanted to review a few of my favorite places in the area.

The Invisible Fountains- Eastworks, Easthampton.

Here you will see a thousand paintings for free! And maybe buy one for 11.11 22.22 or 33.33.... and the artist prints my favorite valley publication (even more so than the Hampshire Gazette!) the Yankee Winebib. Wow, I think we all should have warehouse space to completely pursue wine and painting and movies and whatever your OCD has been hinting at your whole life. Maybe that is the key to happieness? Obsession and PMA??


North Shore Seafood Company- King St. Northampton

Last time I had fish and chips was at a Canadian National Park called.. humm.. Bay of Fundy. Largest tidal changes in the world. The sea goes out and out until rock and rollers from Montreal on road trips ask me, and American, where the ocean is. Thats cool- and I ate lots of fried fish and chips there. It was not a friday. Boats get stuck in the mud during the low tied and my father assumed it was a tourist trap. Anyways, North Shore has an amazing fish fry until 7pm on friday, and it is delicate and delicious. Only fridays cause of some Catholic thing (lent?), and chips are served wit fried fish to cool down the hot grease...

Heavy Metal Warehouse- Easthampton

There is a world of warehouses you never think of, and people running them. Bagel Cutter warehouses, and semi-pornographic fantasy/scifi comic book warehouses.

Trader Joes Dumpster- Hadley.

See Below.

More to come.
