Dorset! Love that place! The cutest town green surrounded by vintage inns and a country store. Before I get there, I'm headed to the infamous Dorset Farmer's Market:

and of course the Dorset Quarry, not to be missed!

Trolling about the internet I found some nice back roads that I am going to drive: Nichols Hill Road and the Dorset Hollow Road loop, which I heard were so beautiful. I got these roads from their brochure (albeit summer - which it still feels like!). The views at the top of Nichols Hill Road are supposed to be really nice.

Then on to see Emerald Lake State Park, not going to hike there, just want to see what it is all about.

I have to fit this all in so I make the 2:00 single chair lift ride at Mad River Glen before they close the lift! :roll:
