Post 57 ~ Falling Up Tour ~ Vermont ~ "the green mountain state"

A Ferry ride for Snickers and the RV ~ a first for them both!!!


Today we took another ferry ride to VT from NY and set up camp in South Hero.  Beautiful place, only 4 years old.  Nice water, Internet and we even got satellite!!!  It's the little things!




Snick is not sure of this water . . . he sees only water and was crying
 

I don't think this is wide or tall enough


still not liking this road trip; too much water




Can you say "white knuckle ride" ??


Good thing we stopped; we would've been with that fisherman


We felt weird on this ferry; like a giant!






O.K.  I've had enough of this water ride, when will we been done here?
  





.....finally, Snick was very happy to get off this ride!





We picked up this cool book for the Northern New England states.  It has tours listed with various stops.  We took the first one today. 

These are cute castles; they are in side-yards of people's homes.  They were built in the early 1900's by caretakers of people's summer homes.  Here are just three that we found, they were so cute!












Can't believe what farmers have in Vermont, can you?



Not sure if this is his happy face?  What do you think Tabi?  Hana? Kevin?



Three pigs in a mud pile!  Doesn't get much better than this!



They were raising all the colors of salmon and trout; all you needed was a fishing pole  (hehehe)









Wonder if this guy is any relation to Beth?

1783 - it looks pretty good still!




St. Anne's Shrine in Isle La Motte where priests celebrated the state's first Roman Catholic mass on July 26, 1666





Whata a cute farmer's market; got some yummy veggies (and tomatoes for tomada samichs)
