Houses, painted in muted tones of white, grey, and pale blue, cluster near the riverbanks, their porches often shaded by ancient maples, their gardens a riot of hardy perennials that have weathered countless seasons. The light at dusk, a soft wash of rose and lavender, spills over the western ridges, casting long, benevolent shadows that deepen the contours of the terrain.
