Burlington, Vermont

What a dynamic city! Home to the University of Vermont. Situated on Lake Champlain, the other great lake. Shopping. Food. Entertainment. Birthplace of Ben & Jerry's and Bernie Sander's political career. Why don't we live there?! Fortunately, my friend Stacey hosted us for two days in her downtown abode so we could at least experience the magic for a little while. Thank you, Stacey!



Church Street Marketplace in the evening. Sidewalk dining at its best. If you find yourself in Burlington, do eat at the Farmhouse Tap and Grill. A new addition to the downtown dining scene. Excellent!



The quickest way to get to the Adirondack Park in upstate New York from Burlington is to take the ferry from Charlotte, VT to Essex, NY. Luck was on our side this particular Tuesday morning. Upon arrival at the dock we drove on board and immediately cast off. While crossing I made lunch and we enjoyed it and the wonderful view.
