Take a ride through these New England towns.
On Main Street, just off the village green, you can find at least one great,
commanding house with gables and porches that run the length of the house both
west and south and seem to hold the sun all day. It is the type of house
the town takes pride in, for its cool white elegance in the green summer, for
its rich warm glow on black winter nights. It is the kind of house that
dresses up for Christmas, with electric candles in each window, and delicate
white lights on the evergreen shrubs in the yard. It is the type of house
the people in the village speak about as if they all own it together. And
so, in a sense, they do.
