Vermont was quite a treat. We had passed through the state a few years back, when we returned from a trip to Maine, but this was the first time we could look around, though time was short. We were on sensory overload, as we tried to take in the mountains and countryside, the quaint shops and buildings with years of history. We wished we could have taken our time on back roads and stopped more along the way. A vacation to Vermont is definitely in our plans for the future.
