This poem was originally published in the New Haven Register. I came across it in a 1950 book called Early Homesteads of Pomfret and Hampton, written by Susan Jewett Griggs.

I’ve heard that the🍂🍁🍂are going to change early this year. I’m all for that, as long as it doesn’t mean the snow is going to come early too! #thesizeofconnecticut

Despite the TSOC tagline, sometimes I stay *on* the beaten path. This was my first trip to Old Sturbridge Village. I went for an assignment, and while I knew I’d appreciate the dozens of historic buildings, I didn’t know that the grounds, trails, gardens, and overall setting would be so beautiful. (Speaking of buildings, this one, the Fenno House, is the oldest at OSV. It was built in 1724 in Canton, MA.) If you haven’t been here either, I do recommend it. Yes, it’s touristy (and $$) but it’s not a tourist trap. Plus, it’s so large - the largest outdoor living history museum in New England, i.e. bigger than Mystic Seaport - that if you go at a less popular time, it won’t feel crowded at all. You can choose whether to go inside the exhibits or stay entirely outside; you don’t have to interact with anyone if you don’t want to; and there’s enough of a variety of things to see and do that you could spend hours here, or even a whole day. And there are sheep!🐑🐏#thesizeofconnecticut
