Scenes of Vermont Forums

Hi Abby: I read in your other post that you had some great winter shots from this last storm. I'll have to agree with you it was like a winter wonderland! The most outstanding trees were the pines because the snow really stuck to the boughs making for an enchanted forest of white. For two mornings, ...

Abby: great! I just spoke with my annual fall travel friend and she will try to send her hubby off on a fishing trip to their house on the Cape that weekend. We are going to be way up near Stowe so hopefully we can all meet in a manageable locale and then start planning a fun excursion. The reason f...

Central VT : Rochester : Liberty Hill Farm : Everyone, I had such a nice weekend at this farm in Rochester in October, I wanted to post it. The location was ideal, beautiful scenery surrounded the farm. The highlights were the food, the owners, wonderful guests and being able to experience a small ...

Hi bm: thanks for the reply. Guests are definately looking for B&B's and Country Inns. That's what I'm interested in for both fall trips. Someone from the forum previously mentioned the Comfort Inn and truly enjoyed it from their descriptions. The Admin list is quite helpful however, as the list see...

Hi Abby: thanks for the pics. Looks mighty darn cold to me but fun! Reminds me of when I went dog-sledding years back. The picture of Barton Hill Road was beautiful. I'm betting that it is gorgeous in full foliage! Barton looks like a very nice, quaint town. Maybe when I'm up in the fall, we'll driv...

Hi everyone! I've been scrolling through and reviewing Admin's long list of top lodging sites. I'd like to start a new thread (one to keep us motivated for Fall 08 :lol: ) so that we can share in a positive light, some of the wonderful inns, B&B's, farms or resorts where we have stayed in Vermont. I...

Hi Abby! Nice to hear from you! I haven't started ice skating because after our first "ice/sleet/snow event" here in CT, I tried to climb over a snow/ice bank to get off the sidewalks into the road where the walking was more even with my new dog, and I fell over the bank into the road with the dog!!...

Hey foliage friends! Happy New Year ! You won't believe this but I had been navigating lodging sites for next season for a couple of hours today and was thinking I should go back to the forum for recommendations and then here I am finding some new posts! I spoke with a couple of innkeepers who have ...

Hey foliage folks and regulars: I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving and safe journey to all your destinations! Had an inch of snow yesterday! Winter is on its way! Believe it or not, about 1/4 of our trees are still with full foliage, some in full peak and some still all green! Go figu...

bm: Awesome! This will definately be one for the record books! What a riot to have us all in one place and to put faces on our screen names! You can certainly count me in! I'm planning on at least 2 trips next fall, with one for sure - the first weekend in October. I'm up for anything with lots of a...

Hi Andy: thanks for your response. No, I have never been to a true sugaring operation with the evaporator and all, but have been a popular guest at many sugarhouses (including the Green Mountain Sugar House) where the end product is sold. I love all the maple sugar products and we bought a lot of it...

Abby: you don't actually have to say goodbye! We can keep the post going 'till next fall! :lol: I'll be up the first weekend in October to the Stowe/Burlington area for sure. I can't wait to explore these areas. I'll also be up the weekend after Columbus Day for a 4-5 day tour. I may even take my gu...

Abby: I have tons of energy - just love to travel through New England and see what's around the next corner! The only thing that stops me on the weekend is rain. :roll: Last Sunday I was desperate to get out of the house after the rain Saturday so I hiked with friends to the top of one of our "mount...

Reunion buddies: I am up for anywhere but I was kind of hoping to get to some areas where we've never been before (PWT and bm: get those wheels churnin' for some ideas) with some back road adventures similar to Lewis Pond, if Lewis Pond is not an option. I would be happy doing some far reaches in NE...

PWT: is Lewis Pond Overlook the one that Abby and friends took forever to get to? I'd love to see that! I'd have to get reservations at an inn or b&b for the weekend so it doesn't matter what part of Vermont we would be touring! Let's make it happen!
