Description

The family is back from our vacation in the Berkshires and we’re happy to announce that our first official “family” vacation was a smashing success. For an entire week we hid out in South Lee, Massachusetts at the Oak ‘n Spruce Resort. The resort was exceptional and the area, completely new to both of us, was better than we expected. We had always lived under the impression that the Berkshires and Western Massachusetts were much farther away than is actually the case. After spending Christmas morning with my Parents we packed up the kids and made the surprisingly short 2.5 hour drive out to Lee, MA. For the next seven days we did almost nothing and thoroughly enjoyed it. We lounged about, kicked back and relaxed. Given the proximity to home, we didn’t feel the pressure that we had to see and do everything there is to do for fear of never getting back there again. Now that we know just how nice the resort and area are we plan on going back sometime soon.
