Is NEK past peak? Should I skip it? How about Groton State Park? What's the Stowe area looking like? Waitsfield?

Snook: I live in Palm Harbor (if you aren't familiar, just north of Clearwater)

Of course. I live down in St. Pete!

Sounds good! What part of FL are you in?

I'll be coming up from Florida this year for the first time in about 4 or 5 years. I hope the colors are good! How bad is the damage from the floods?

Thanks ct! Unfortunately we were unable to make it to the Townshend festival. Read the reports on the board that the color wasn't great in that area. So we had a choice between hitting the festival or chasing color elsewhere. There's always next time!

Thank you, Triz. I appreciate the advice. I think that's what we'll try to do. Our vacation home her in Jamaica is incredible but the lack of leaves are making me a tad sad. We did head up to Merck Farms today and it was a great little trip with the girls. I'm going to see if I can find us a vacati...

That's funny!

Yesterday was our last day. I saw that there was snow in the forecast for higher elevations and an early morning check of the Killington webcam showed snow on the ground. So we rode the gondola up and it was snowing up top with an inch or two in the ground. Tons of fun for our Florida kids to play i...

I'll be up to Mt Greylock tomorrow, hoping for good foliage conditions on the drive up. We are taking I-91 to I-90 to Route 7 and Route 2 home. Currently it's snowing in Vermont above 2,700' and accumulating above 3,000'. We just came down from the Killington gondola. It was snowing with a couple i...

Colors are starting to get good in the Champlain Valley/Route 7 corridor. From Rochester, pop over Rochester Gap (Route 73). Take Route 53 along Lake Dunmore. Explore the back roads of Weybridge, Cornwall, Sailsbury, East Middlebury, Bristol, Starksboro, Lincoln, Hinesburg, New Haven, Ferrisburgh, ...

Great stuff, thank you! I'm gonna go!

Snookman: Liberty Hill Farm is a treasure! I've stayed there before and the meals are OUTSTANDING! Huge breakfasts and dinners. Beautiful farm indeed. Best farm stay I've ever experienced. Enjoy! :D Excited to be here! My boys are getting a big kick out of being on a farm. On Saturday I need to mak...

Hi Snookman: glad you are enjoying your vacation! Cooler weather will arrive, yesterday was downright hot and today is more humid and warm. Hope you have time to travel south in Vermont to areas where the color is stronger. CT Yes! Staying at liberty Hill farm the next two nights. We have all day F...

Stowe still had good color today. Though I felt like the best had passed. Lots of wind throughout the day with leaves coming down. We biked the Stowe recreation path which was fun. Stopped and did the corn maze with the kids. Drove up to smugglers notch, it's past peak up there. Still worth it thoug...

Hit the Kanc today on the way up from Boston to Stowe. Will do Stowe and surrounding area the next two days. It was our first time and it was awesome! So much to see and do. To my untrained Florida eyes I would say near peak in Conway, a tad past peak in some spots at the top (especially on the high...
