The Hoosac River at the site of the old tannery
An interesting note is that there are at least 3 different spellings for this river, depending upon where you live: Hoosac in MA, Hoosic in VT and Hoosick in NY. I chose the first of the 3, having been raised in the Berkshire MTs of MA and actually gone to "Hoosac Street" elementary school. Another unusual fact is that this river flows north... hence the expression in my family to "go down North".
