Hi all .. and especially my Mom!
We are down here on a 2 week trip .. and so wanted to share our trip with my Mom and a few others. My emails should be short with a few pictures! Let me know if you would rather pick up the details at a later date!
Sunday we drove down to Jeffersonville Vermont .. at the western foot of Smugglers Notch. We are staying in a small Inn which has been here for eons .. and it shows!
Yesterday we cycled a lovely route partly on Pleasant Valley Rd to Fletcher and then north up over some big hills on new pavement to Sheldon and on to Enosburg Falls .. nice little village with a park and a few stores. The return home was pretty fast on parts of the 108 picking up views of Mount Mansfield as we entered the last valley into Jeffersonville.
We had an excellent dinner at the Family Table on the edge of town after sitting on the porch on rockers nursing our beers!
Pictures are of Jay Peak and then Mount Mansfield.
I always think of Mom's cycling trip to Stowe when she was a teenager in the late 30s .. but that's another story!
Cheers
Harold and Marion
