Stopped in downtown saratoga springs. Found a great bakery. Mrs Landons and a great yarn store. Common Threads

Then we headed to Manchester to Orvis so Michael could use his coupon. Then we headed to Stowe. Went a different route this time and discovered a new covered bridge Shushan covered bridgeBut after I took the picture I tripped and scraped my knee and elbow. Thank goodness there is a first aid kit in truck

Then we headed to Stowe and the sun finally came out

The gardens at the Stone Hill Inn are beautiful as usual

View from our room

Just some close ups of the beautiful flowers I finally got to see some lupine

Last day in Stowe. Did two loads of wash. Went to farmers market and bought some maple caramel bourbon popcorn. Then we spent afternoon relaxing outside by the gardens. It was another beautiful day. Wish rest of our trip it would be this nice but heat wave is on its way

Spotted at farmers market

Daisies are my favorite and there are lots of them

Started the day in downtown Stowe. I have a picture of church from a distance but decided to take one from the front of church

Starbucks is now in Stowe along with 4 other coffee shops

Next up another covered bridge

View from the bridge

Then onto the Stowe Toll Road. It cost over $51 to drive the 4.5 miles to the top of Mt Mansfield. Beautiful views of the Adirondack Mountains

There is a small ledge on back of red pole for you to place your phone so you can set a timer and take a photo of you in the background.

Stowe Mountain Chapel

Then back to the Inn. It was a beautiful afternoon we sat outside. View from just outside our room

View of back of the Inn

Then off to dinner at the Backyard

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

Was surprised to see two fairly new birdhouses and a dry flower arrangement on front porch

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

Covered bridge is right alongside Simon Pearce

Made it to Stowe at 4 pm just in time to check in to Stone Hill Inn. One of our favorite bed snd breakfasts.

Garden right outside our room

Another moose. Still hope to see a real one before we leave

Went out to dinner at Doc Ponds and as we pulled into parking lot someone told us to careful there was a bear in the tree. It was hard to get a good shot of the bear but the hamburgers were delicious
