The Mount...

I recently visited the old estate of Edith Wharton’s in Lenox, Massachusetts. Wow! What an amazing property. We roamed the gardens, following a long trail from the horse barn to the home down the hill. I loved all the trees and the formal garden—particularly the long path lined with conical hedges. Magical. Inside was beautiful as well. It always amazes me to stand in someone’s one-time office and stare at their desk. I loved looking around her library and felt this way recently with Edison’s labs. I will need to read ore of her books now, as I have a better understanding of her, having visited there.
