Vacation - Day 2

Today we started out by going to the basketball hall of fame in Springfield, Mass. It was mainly a stop for the boys, but it was actually pretty fun. They had a bunch of exhibits about different players and such, but they also had stuff you could do, like measuring how high you can jump and recording you being a sportscaster. At the end you can go shoot some hoops on the basketball court, and it is fun because they have a bunch of hoops starting with a bucket like they used when they first started playing basketball. I was especially good at that one, even though it didn’t have a backboard.



After our adventures at the hall of fame, we drove to Stockbridge, which is where Norman Rockwell lived for a lot of his life. We walked around the town for a while then went to the Norman Rockwell museum. They have his actual studio there, which they took apart from where it was in town and put back together at the museum site. At the museum they also had all the covers he ever did for the Saturday Evening Post, which was 300 something. It was a pretty cool museum.
