DESTINATION…….VERMONT…..

photo (9) scene of church- redone My dear friend Cindy Cragun and I have been trying to get together forever…. she has moved to Calif. and I am still here in Florida. So finally we planned this trip!

  Emily’s Covered Bridge- story goes a couple wanted to be together but not allowed so upon finding her lover dead…. Emily hung herself from this bridge (has it’s own face book page)

DSC_0683 Monday turned out to be our one and only rainy day but we still went to the Shelburne Orchard to pick apples. This was my first time :)

you pay so much by the pound so you gotta be careful…

DSCN0630 when you’re done picking you can come back to Hot apple cider…

 Seeing the Shelburne Museum is a Big Undertaking.. there is alot to see. for more info. about it go to: http://shelburnemuseum.org/

DSCN0635 Last but not least… a tour of the famous Ben & Jerry Ice cream factory in Waterbury, VT. (town close to Stowe where we were staying). We both bought a pint to take back to the Inn (or farmhouse as Cindy liked to call it) but after a ‘Big Dinner’ there was no way we could eat it. So we had to donate to a lucky couple we met eating breakfast.

DSCN0619 I must say goodbye to beautiful Vermont….
