Visting the Capitol of Vermont

I drove 3 1/2 hours from Sturbridge for next training here in Montpelier, the Capitol of Vermont (The smallest capitol in the US). They really do take care of the roads up here and although it drove me crazy that the windshield kept freezing unless I sprayed the water on it (I doubt it was just water, I'm sure there was some kind of additive to help melt the ice), I did make it safely up here. The hotel where I'm staying (Capitol Plaza hotel) has been around since the 1800's and is run by a f...

Rural America With A Liberal Twist

... After switching drivers near the town of Rockingham, I veered off the interstate and headed through the mountains along Highway 12. The congestion along this one-way road began to increase as we neared the town of Woodstock. Viewed by many as being the quintessential New England town, Woodstock is filled with typical Americana icons such as a covered bridge, a central green surrounded by restored homes, and a town crier. Today being Columbus Day, many people flocked to Woodstock to ...

Exploring Vermont

... us into Canada in order to get to Averille.......oops.....we left the passports in the safe for this day trip, so by the time we got turned around, we were way off course and decided to go to plan B, and look for moose somewhere else, like in US.

Back over the pass without incident, and off for an early dinner. Florence is using the Inn's washer and dryer to do some laundry before we head off to Niagara Falls tomorrow.

I'd Like to stay Here a While

... kinda hoping to see a moose or a bear.

Outside of Woodstock I stopped a charming General Store and bought a giant chocolate chip cookie and a Christmas gift. I wanted cheese, but they didn't sell it by slice.

When Charlie and I got to Woodstock, we had to stop. It is so pretty and the Bed & Breakfast places look so inviting. I imagined my friends Don & Sarah coming to a New England village like this, strolling ...

Beautiful town, Beautiful People

Getting together with a dear friend is so special. Kate showed me around town, wined and dined me and hiked my legs off (and Charlie's) in the wooded park up the hill from Main Street.

Montpelier is a dog friendly town and Charlie got to lick up fallen crumbs as we ate lunch at the Skinny Pancake - a crepe place with wonderful crepes. Kate took ...

Anticipation, Recreation, Telenovellation.

I'm at home, hanging with friends and the parentals. I'm working out the final details of my upcoming adventure and downloading an ambitious number of telenovellas in a last-ditch effort to learn a bit of Spanish before flying to Guadalajara. Will I succeed? Stay tuned!

Boondock in Vt

What am AWSOME place I found to spend the night! I'm in East Hardwick, Vt. Just off RT 15. I was half kidding when I posted my blog about staying in the woods along the side of the road, but I found a real nice spot. There’s an old railroad bridge across a stream, the sun is just going down, and it looks like a thunderstorm is on the way. There is no TV, but I have the Red Sox on the XM radio. I may try some fishin’ in the morning. What could be better?

Shopping and Fishing in Vermont

We left David after a hearty breakfast of bacon and eggs, and headed south, the day was wet and the RV and truck are now quite dirty. We arrived at Manchester Vermont late afternoon and visited a few stores at the local outlet mall prior to finding our Campsite. We are currently camped right next to the Battenkill River, a famous trout ...

Stowe - Montpelier

... suis dit que les gens sont inconscients!! La montée se fait sur un sentier très étroit et très rocheux. Il y a des endroits où il faut passer sous des rochers, ramper, s'aider des mains pour avancer !! A un moment donné, je suis passé entre 2 parois de la falaise, pas plus de 80cm de large avec un passage intérieur qui m'a presque envi de faire demi-tour, tellement je me demandais comment passer !!!! Le genre d'endroit o ...

The drive home :(

Sadly, this was the day we had to go back home. We weren't looking forward to the long drive again... just yet. We stopped at Portland. I read that there is a big fish auction at the Portland Fish Exchange. Upon arriving though, we realized it's just for commercial exchanges though. We found a public one down this really neat alleyway - it felt like you were ...
