fall leaves in Vermont

Well it’s been a long time since I made a post on here, sorry about that. Time goes fast in the fall in Vermont. There are so many things that needs to be done. Besides all the work of getting ready for winter, you want to get outside and enjoy the beautiful fall weather. Also it’s just right for hunting and the last fishing trips of the year.

So I’ve had my hands full! I did get time to go out and take some nice pictures of the fall leaves in Stowe, Vermont. The colors were pretty good this year, bright yellows, oranges and reds. Lots of tourist come up in the fall, leaf peepers we call them. So the tourist areas are busy with them buying lots of apples, cider, apple pies and of course that pure Vermont maple syrup!

I’ve put a bunch of my best fall foliage pictures in here and hope you like them. It was an overcast day out on some of them, so the colors could have been better. But they look nice, it’s always better when your right there of course. So enjoy the following pictures of fall in Vermont! (more…)

About the state of Vermont facts

It’s occurred to me that I have not really said too much about Vermont. So for those of you who don’t know much about it, I’ll give you some facts. Vermont is 9,609 square miles small. Yes it’s a small state, but most of New England states are small.

The highest mountain is Mount Mansfield, at 4,395 ft. high. It’s in Stowe, which is a famous ski resort town. Skiing is big business in Vermont, with several large ski resorts around the state. The Van Trapp lodge is in Stowe, which is run by the family that movie “the sound of music” was based on.

Vermont boarders Massachusetts on the south, New Hampshire on the east, Canada on the north and New York on the west. Lake Champlain makes much of the boarder between New York and Vermont and is the 6th largest fresh water lake in the US. (more…)
