Had to take a picture of this place before we left Bennington. We asked our server at breakfast if she knew what it originally was. She said she didn’t know. All she knew was that it was an historic site and could not be demolished. Guess they need Chip and JoAnna

We have both decided to stop in Bellows Falls for some coffee and chai tea Stopped at a great cafe

We had stopped at Bellows Falls years ago It’s really changed. There a lot of nice shops. We picked up some glass items at a great craft shop

Next stop King Arthur’s Flour

Stopped at their cafe to get some cold water and discovered

Next stop Simon Pearce. Great display as you walk in the front door

Love all the glass trees

On our way back to the Inn, we stopped for some coffee/chai and an afternoon snack.  I picked up a magazine about Stowe.  Since it was such a beautiful day, we decided to sit outside to enjoy our snack and read.  The magazine mentioned a covered bridge less than two miles away.  This is our fourth or fifth visit to Stowe – How did we not know there was a covered bridge in town.  Definitely had to check it out.

This bridge is known as “Emily’s Bridge” due to the fact that it is haunted by a ghost named Emily.  There are many sad stories of how Emily died on the bridge.

Many people who have visited the bridge have experienced disturbing paranormal activity.

If you would like to know more just google Emily’s Bridge, Stowe, Vermont

Another beautiful day in Stowe.  We decided to head to Moss Glen Falls since we haven’t been there in years.  We forgot the tick spray, but a nice group of girls let us use some of theirs.  We also forgot how uneven and steep the trail was – thank goodness we had our hiking books on but should have brought our hiking sticks with us.  The trail was filled with rocks near the top
