Yesterday, we did drive up to Quechee Gorge in Vermont. It's about three and a half hours from here.
The place was nice and although it was nicknamed as the Grand Canyon of Vermont, it wasn't quite as deep as the one in New York. However, there was a nice walk down about 165 feet to the river and back up.
We also enjoyed visiting our favorite cheese and maple syrup farm...Sugarbush Farm. It's on a gravel road and both the cheese wrapping and the store is in an old farm house. Their cheese is excellent as is their maple syrup which is available in different strengths.
We also picked up some of Bob's Sugar maple syrup which is available in a smoked variety as well as with hot peppers...some very, very strong.
And, of course, you can't stop in Vermont without going to one of The Vermont Country Store which has everything from kitchen ware to old fashioned toys to candy...lots of candy.
To top off the day we ate at the Lil' Britain small restaurant in Bennington, Vermont which serves the best fish and chips. If you're in the area you have to try it. The place is tiny, but the food is spectacular.
Today we're working on household things. Hope you are enjoying these last few days of August...fall is creeping up on us...before you know it, it will be that fast slide to the winter holidays...
Have a great day...
Talk with you on Monday...
