Summertime Hobbies

Once we become adults, it becomes harder to pick up new hobbies. Life gets busier, and we don’t always love being new at something. But with any new hobby, you’re going to be bad at first! Here’s a challenge for you: find one new hobby you can try this summer. There are tons of options in the Pioneer Valley…
