Chilly morning. It was 56 degrees this morning

Drove thru Smuggler’s Notch to St Albans. We have driven all over Vermont but have never been to St Albans. There was a farmers market in town and we purchased a beautiful stained glass piece of Mt Mansfield and a bottle of wine. We found a nice park right alongside Lake Champlain

Then we decided to go to Jericho It’s been several years since we were there

The Old Red Mill houses the Historical Society Museum, Snowflake Bentley Exhibit and a craft shop Snowflake Bentley was the first person to photographs single snow crystal

We stopped at the Edelweiss Mountain Deli for some great turkey sandwiches Got back to the Inn and we both tried to open the wine. Finally had to ask one of the other guests to try. He changed corkscrews and opened it.

Decided to head back to Crawford Notch to see if we could get some good photos

Stopped at pond by the Wiley House first.

Then we headed to the Notch. Luckily there were not that many tourists there today so we managed to get a good parking spot and were able to take some great photos

Then we stopped by the Flume

Then we headed to North Conway to check out Zeb’s country store. Bought an ornament and another gnome.

So far this is the only moose we have seen

Then we stopped at Thorne Pond and continued to the Saco River. It was a rocky path to get to river

Headed back to B and B but had to stop for more pumpkin people this one won second prize

This one is by a winery

Once we got back to the B and B we stopped at main part of Inn and one of the owners told us that Samuel Bemis owned over 10,000 acres that included most of Crawford Notch. Current owners own his house and over 115 acres. He bought one of the first cameras in 1840 and took the first known landscape photographs
