Day 6:
We were officially beaten by the rain today… the downpour started when we reached the parking lot of out intended hike and did not let up till we were back at the condo. We made the most of it and visited some cool places:
1. King Arthur Flour Factory Store – had some sweet and savory treats and good coffee for a post-breakfast “snack”

2 princes
2. Quechee Gorge Shops (our hike was supposed to be the Gorge) – Willem found his Holy Grail – a John Deere Shirt!

new favorite shirt over his old favorite - the tow truck shirt
3. Long Trail Brewery – good beer, a great plate of hummus and veggies, good fries and a cool factory tour – but it was too loud for Willem.

Long Trail - are you noticing a theme?

notice the bottling machine is also named Simon
4. Vermont Country Store – they have all those hard to find things you don’t really need, but always wonder where you would go to buy it if you did… we escaped with only buying some candy.

You mean you went to see King Arthur without us? Why, Nanna and Grandad have supported him through years of blueberry pancake and cookie making!! We must own a good part of that property by now!!
So glad you did not let the rain dampen your enjoyment of VT!!
Good news is that it rained everywhere. It sounds as though rain in the Green Mt. State was more bearable than it would have been in Worcester County!!
See you soon — maybe tomorrow as you make your way home!
Love, Nanna
