Getting to know Windsor.

It did indeed snow yesterday but I think only 6 inches. Enough to powder the landscape. It
was a beautiful blue sky day and I wanted to get some pictures before the whiteness turned
to grey or melted away.

This is a shot across one of the frozen ponds in Windsor and towards Mt. Ascutney
which has a ski area. Also a shot down Main St. from McKay's house. The downtown
where The Merc is just around that bend.

McKay and Nate's house which was built in 1817. That is where we are staying. Then
there is the Windsor House which is just across from the Merc downtown. Its a
historic building in the town (which I don't know the history to :)

This is The Constitution house where the Vermont constitution was signed in 1777.
This was the first constitution to prohibit slavery. That is the Cornish-Windsor Bridge
built in 1866. It is the longest wooden bridge in the US and the the longest 2 -span c
overed bridge in the world. This connects Vermont to New Hampshire and is right
in Windsor.

Mike with Maddie (Brig and Chelle's youngest) and a pretty cute picture there
of Maddie crawling up the stairs towards my camera.
