Sugarloaf is one of the best in the East and is worth the trip. They say that New Years eve is always quite a bash up there, even though it is pretty isolated. 233 miles from Boston...

He is also a man who usually does not have to be begged to sit down at the piano and play for a convivial group. Once, at a bash for the American Ballet Theater in Texas, he and several other male dancers skinny-dipped in the pool. When he saw a woman soloist at the other end, he led a group of playful men in taking off her bathing suit...
