Last morning in Vermont. 4 days went by fast. we have been going to the Squire House in Dorset for over 10 years
Pond behind the house
Norwegian Wood Piles. It’s a space saving wood stacking technique. Once the barn was full of firewood they had to find a place for the rest of the firewood.
Made it home in time to see the sunset

We decided to drive the Mount Equinox Skyline Drive this afternoon. It’s 5.2 miles long and is the longest privately owned paved road in the US. The Green mountains, and the White mountains of New Hampshire can be seen to the east. The Adirondacks of New York are to the west and the Taconic and the Berkshires are to the south
We have not done that in years and was surprised to find a beautiful visitor center at the top.

Headed to Vermont. It was a beautiful drive. The leaves are awesome. It’s supposed to rain most of tomorrow so not sure if the leaves will last. Stay tuned
Two views of the same tree. We stopped at Merck Forest We have not been there in years but it’s such a beautiful day and the views are great

Foggy morning but it turned into a beautiful day. We drove alongside of lake George and then headed to Fort Ticonderoga. We both remember being there as kids. Then we drove to Crown Point and then took a long drive back to Saratoga on a lot of country roads. The scenery was beautiful.
The only downside was we left one of our cameras in the hotel and the one we left in the SUV had a dead battery so we had to rely on our iPhones

The sun came out and it was a beautiful day Stopped at Saratoga Spa state park. We were happy to see that the rain and wind did not knock down all the leaves The park is 2.379 acres and it contains lots of trails, the performing arts center, picnic ares and lots of other amenities. There is a beautiful fall display at the entrance to the park. I was lucky enough to talk to one of the state employees who told me that her and her boss start working on the display in mid September. This is just part of the beautiful display
According to Wikipedia There was a belief that the waters of Saratoga held healing properties that led to construction of spas snd health centers that would cater to local tourism and health industries. At the height of this bottling frenzy in the early 1900s there were more than 200 private wells tapping into Saratoga mineral springs

It rained most of the way to Saratoga Springs but the color on the trees in New York is awesome. Hopefully we can get some good pictures tomorrow or the next day but weather forecast calls for more rain and wind is supposed to pick up

Spotted two eagles on our afternoon walk. One is on shore and one is in the water. This is the best shot I could get with my I phone. We are so lucky to have all this wildlife in our back yard
