Last day in Vermont and it was beautiful. We both got massages and then stopped in Manchester to check out the new bridge and Riverwalk. Then stopped at H N Williams store and last stop at Prentiss Pond
Went out to dinner and found a better place to get a picture of the bridge
Another beautiful fall day. We didn’t do much today since we did a lot of driving yesterday. We did go to my favorite bookstore The Northshire in Manchester. There were lots of people of all ages there. It was great to see so many people there
View from the Squire House this afternoon
Temperatures were only in the 70s today. Went to the Dorset Theater and saw the play Salvage. It was a funny and heartwarming new play.
Really enjoyed it they have a play in July called the Book Club Play. Would like to see that but Vermont is a 7 hour drive
travel day so not much of a chance to take pictures
Last morning in Vermont. When we left it was 70 degrees. We have been visiting Dorset for years but never stopped at Dorset bakery until this morning. What a great find
It was gray and overcast
Pretty flowers by the fence and parking lot
We usually try to travel during the week but because of a mix up with medication we decided to travel on a Saturday. We decided to leave later than usual so we left at 11. Traffic wasn’t bad even thought it rained on and off in New York and New Jersey. Google maps advised us to take 287 instead of 17 and Garden State. Made good time til we had a downpour on 287 and I missed an exit. 287 might be a little longer but will give it a try again. Made it home in 7 hours with 4 stops
It’s good to be home
We both got massages today. If you are ever in Manchester, Vermont check out Blew Skies Holistic Massage. Bess is awesome
Then we drove back to Bennington to pick up Michael’s hat that we left at our first stop
Some pictures around Squire House grounds
A very warm humid day. Temperatures hit 90. Dorset Union Store is great. We love their sandwiches and cookies
It’s 6:30 pm and it’s 86 degrees in Vermont and it’s going to be hot and humid for next few days
Stopped at the Northshire Bookstore – my favorite bookstore. They have a new section Blind Date with a Book.
Staying at the Squire House again. Owners told us it was our 17th visit
Travel day today. Pond at Notchland Inn
Since we were driving by Norwich we had to make a stop at King Arthur Flour and stock up on some of our favorite things
Stopped at Dorset Union Store to pick up sandwiches for dinner and the Three Pears Gallery is all decorated for fall lot more pumpkins that I remember from past years
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
