BEFORE LONG, YOU ARE A GONER.
DREAMING OF CHASING WATERFALLS.
>> I GOT HOOKED.
SHAYNA: FOR SUSAN RODRIGUEZ OF SPRINGFIELD, IT ALL STARTED WHEN SHE PICKED UP GREG PARSONS "NEW ENGLAND WATERFALLS." >> THERE WERE 400 IN OUR AREA AND I HAD NO IDEA.
SHAYNA: SHE WAS SO INSPIRED SO SHE STARTED A BLOG -- "CHASING WATERFALLS IN NEW ENGLAND." >> I WANT TO FOCUS ON THE BEAUTY OF THE WATERFALLS.
SHAYNA: WE MEET UP WITH SUSAN AND HER FRIEND.

IF YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND YOUR WAY HERE, YOU WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY BE ALONE.
SMALL WONDER THIS IS SOMETIMES CALLED "HEAVENLY HIDEAWAY." >> IT IS MAGICAL.
I FEEL TRANSPORTED TO ANOTHER WORLD.

SHAYNA: PETER AND HIS WIFE MEREDITH ALONE THE OLD INN ON THE GREEN IN MARLBOROUGH.
HE UNDERSTUDIED WITH LYDIA SHIRE AND JASPER WHITE.
>> THEIR EXAMPLE OF DEDICATION TO ALL THINGS EXCELLENT HAS CARRIED ME ALONG.
SHAYNA: THE INN IS BOTH ELEGANT AND SPARE, AUTHENTIC AND STRIKINGLY ARTFUL.
FLOORBOARDS ARE WORN.
AND THE DINING ROOM IS LIT BY THE FIREPLACE AND CANDLES.

SHAYNA: IT STILL FEELS LIKE THE STAGECOACH STOP THAT IT ONCE WAS.
A REMOTE STATION FOR A WEARY TRAVEL AND ON THIS NIGHT, A TIRED WATERFALL CHASER.
