Go to the Lee/Lenox area. Visit the Norman Rockwell Museum. Check out Herman Melville’s Arrowhead house. Hit up Barrington Brewery. Canoe Meadows and Pleasant Valley Wildlife Sanctuaries are wonderful. The Berkshire Botanical Garden is great. Really enjoyed the Berkshire museum, it has a mummy!!! Ozzie’s Glass Gallery on Rt 102 in Lee is a super cool place to visit but the hours vary. Shire Breu-Hous is another brewery to visit.

The aquarium! If you go early on a weekday before field trips arrive and not during school vacation weeks, you have it mostly to yourself for a bit

I wanted to check out the Ice Glen in Stockbridge but I was with my mom who can’t climb over rocks and stuff anymore. https://housatonicheritage.org/places/lauras-tower-trail-ice-glen-trail-stockbridge-mass/#:~:text=600'%20vertical%20ascent-,ICE%20GLEN%20TRAIL,the%20tallest%20pine%20in%20Massachusetts.
For local history, you can go to Stockbridge and imagine you’re living in Arlo Guthrie’s “Alice’s Restaurant”.
