“In this tiny New England village, nestled in the Berkshire mountains of western Massachusetts, children catch falling snowflakes on their tongues as Christmas carolers serenade passers-by from the porch of a sprawling old inn. It looks like a scene straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting.” Chris Bury for ABC’s Good Morning America
