“Between two tall gate-posts of rough-hewn stone we beheld the gray front of the old parsonage, terminating the vista off of an avenue of black-ash trees.”

There‘s something magical about seeing a place described so perfectly by an author. We stumbled upon the Old Manse while hiking near the North Bridge. Emerson and Hawthorne both lived here, but it was Hawthorne who memorialized it.

It‘s so hard to be a puppy who just wants to play and have a mama who has to lesson plan. Playing tug with piggy should always win out over reading “Rappaccini‘s Daughter.”
