Marble House Project is a multi disciplinary artist residency program
Orvis is a must if you are ever in Manchester, Vermont. It’s Michael favorite store but he didn’t find anything today. I think that’s a first.
Dorset Marble Quarry opened in 1785 and is the first marble quarry in the US. it supplied marble to the New York Public Library, and several amazing mansions in NYC. Today the quarry is a much loved place for swimming

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

We forgot the battery and charger for our camera but we were able to order one from Amazon and have it delivered the next day to an Amazon locker. Very convenient. Thank goodness Of all things to leave at home. Luckily we were able to take a lot of photos with our iPhones. I have an iPhone 14 and it takes great pictures. Then yesterday, we realized we did not have any polarizers for the camera. We checked Amazon but delivery to New Hampshire could take several days. Luckily we found a camera shop in Rutland Vermont. They had an old camera from the 1850s
They also had some old cameras on a high shelf. Tried to take a picture but it came out dark. My mother had a Kodak Brownie that looks like the one in the middle. I also remember one that was shaped like a box. Wish I still had both of them.
It’s amazing to think I can now take photos on my iPhone
Long travel day from Saratoga Springs New York to New Hampshire.
Notchland Inn We think it’s our fourth time here
Train tracks run close to the Inn. We are going on a train trip Tuesday and may even go on these tracks

Michael suggested we drive to Lake Moreau State Park and it turned out to be a great idea. We have been to Saratoga Springs several times but just discovered this park
There were several canoes throughout the park. Not sure if that’s a big weed in the middle

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
