Vermont 09 Fri 9th

The rain held off this morning so Penny and I ventured out under overcast skies to go once again to the Cup and Saucer for breakfast. I had the pumpkin pancakes.

After breakfast I decided to visit our favorite local leaf peeping sites. First it was the small lake that always presents beautiful reflection opportunities. In spite of the gloomy skies both Penny and I took some pictures.







Next it was off to the site of a couple of barns. No pictures here. It was too gloomy and the trees had lost many leaves. Then we went by the little pond we visit each year and followed the dirt road that runs by it up over the mountain. There are wonderful views from this road and on a sunny day we will likely return here.

We then returned to the cabin. I did laundry and Penny checked E-mail and the blogs she tracks. She went on to make more ravioli and a big pot of spaghetti sauce. I cleaned the fireplace and restocked the indoor wood supply.

The rain did arrive around noontime. It rained lightly on and off all afternoon and then became steady by evening. It’s supposed to rain into Saturday morning.


Our plan for tomorrow is to head down to Jacksonville by 9 AM to get Penny at least 1 pumpkin pie.  Then we take pictures of the Alpacas.  The rest of the day is open for now. Marty shows up at his cabin in the afternoon. Debbie, Kathy and Joe show on Sunday.
