This is the Fullerton Inn where we stayed this past weekend. Very nice place and I would highly recommend it if your passing through the area. Chester is located about 10 miles south of Okemo mountain ski area. Very quiet and peaceful, located in the center of town. We sat on the front porch and enjoyed a bottle of wine just taking the town in. Great laid back experience. The ride out and back was phenomenal. The weather was perfect, 80ish both Saturday and Sunday, fantastic for a May weekend. The bike ran well, no issues whatsoever. There is nothing worse than having issues with the the ride when your hours from home. We took Rt. 2 (Mohawk Trail) out to Greenfield and then picked up Rt. 5 and followed the Conneticut River up to Rt. 103 which branches off to Chester. Great motorcycle ride if your in that part of the northeast but local VT. cops seem to be itching to write tickets so beware.  The other picture is of the CT. river. This is where it passes through western Mass. but its beautiful all along.
