Bringing It Back

 Northampton is where I lived for 20 years, and even though I moved away a couple of years ago, the town still is part of my inner being. I briefly felt at home here, and still spend most of my free time shopping, dining, and occasionally seeing or playing a show.


COVID cut back on lots of music plans, but when Valentine's Day came rolling around, I got the idea to book a room at the historic Hotel Northampton. I didn't hold back, either. I reserved one of the nicest rooms I could get for my girlfriend and I.


Two private balconies, providing us with a view of Coolidge Park and downtown on one side.





and a smaller balcony on the other side, which I had not expected.


It just so happened that the Super Bowl was on TV, and although my girlfriend isn't much into sports, she does enjoy the halftime show, as do I. Throw in a bubble bath in a Jacuzzi tub, and we had the makings of a good ol' Staycation.


It was chilly on both days, which was a perfect excuse to stay inside this very nice historic hotel, and keep cozy.
