Woke up to rain and 57 degrees. It stopped raining and sun came out in the afternoon and temperature hit 70

We headed to Honey Hollow Falls but when we got there trail was wet and overgrown so then we headed to Mt Philo state park. Along the way I saw a sign for the round church in Richmond. I put it into your GPS but we could not find it so headed to the park. We parked the car and walked to an overlook. I was disappointed but then noticed a trail so decided to walk a bit and saw signs for the summit

The park is the first state park in Vermont. View of Lake Champlain

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.

View of Lake Champlain from the Grand Isles.  We drove around the Grand Isle but were disappointed that there were not a lot of places to get good photos of Lake Champlain.  We stopped at Grand Isle State Park only to discover that it was only for camping.  They would not even let us walk to the lake to take photos – strange.
