August 21, 2007






Hi from Stowe, Vermont. My sister and I drove up yesterday for 3 days. We were to be joined by our niece but she had an emergency situation and couldn't come. We have been visiting shops and galleries, eating too much good food and laughing a great deal. We drove to Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream factory today as well as the Cabot Cheese factory store and then drove to the top of Smuggler's Knotch atop Mt. Mansfield which is the highest point in Vermont. We stopped along the way at the gondola and rode to the top of the ski area. I shot some nice pictures.

Sunday was my family reunion picnic held at my son's house. There were about 20 people there. The kids went swimming in the pool. We nibbled on grilled kilbasi and grilled shrimp then had a traditional picnic meal. My grandchildren are all growing up.

My big surprise is - I have a contract on a house in Hartford, New York near my sister and brother in law. It is just a little doll house, 980 sq. ft., totally redone top to bottom. It is situated on 1.6 acres with a large gamble roofed barn that will actually house the motor home. I will attach a picture of the house as well as some from our trip to Stowe.
