Celebrating Tradition
Co-hosts Amy Traverso and Richard Wiese bring you an inside look at New England tradition.
Celebrating Tradition Weekends with Yankee
Board the massive schooner, J&E Riggin, for a windjammer cruise along the beautiful Maine coast. Then, travel to Boston for the Head of the Charles, the largest two-day rowing event in the world. Lastly, up north in Vermont, visit the Shelburne Museum, one of the country’s most unique museums, home to a land-bound lighthouse, a steamboat docked in a grassy meadow and four centuries of art.
