(The first part of our trip is here.)
Northampton, MA was the next stop on our trip. It’s a funky little college town about 15 miles north of Springfield.
On the way, we learned that Holyoke, MA is where volleyball was invented. Who knew?
We took a stroll around town, eventually stopping at Mimmo’s Pizza for lunch. Their sign boasted of having the biggest slices in town. They were not joking. The pizza was OK, but the atmosphere not so much. It’s probably a great place to stop after the bars have closed.
I caught a show at the Academy of Music a few years ago (She & Him in support of their first album). It’s a great venue.
After lunch we walked through town a bit before heading over to the Smith College Museum of Art.
