Weekend with M&M

We sliced up a watermelon and took it with us on a drive up
to the top of Mt. Ascutney. Classy shots.

The Rolling green hills of Vermont
Windsor from the top of Mt. Ascutney--it looks so tiny.

That path was actually the Old Turnpike Road through Vermont
way back in the day

Me and Mim on stroll around lake Runnemede in green
Mt. Ascutney in the distance.

M&M enjoying the view from our backyard.
Catching their train back to the city--goodbye and please come again!

It is pretty cool how the Amtrak stops right in Windsor--at the Pub. There is something almost romantic about it--old fashion. Friday night, one of my favorite gal pals came up from Brooklyn with her husband for the long weekend. It was excellent to see them and spend some time driving around the countryside and enjoying the beginning of summer before it gets really hot and humid.

Hopefully we helped give them a dose of green, quiet, and calm from their busy city lives. We certainly enjoyed it and the Raspberry Chocolate Chips pancakes at the Sugarhouse which nearly sent us into a pancake coma :) Actually I gained 5 pounds during their visit. We ate very well. I am sold on taking the train down to see them but I don't know if that is going to happen in my near future but always fun to know they are there.

Mike manned the camera (hence no shots of him) and got some goodies.
