So I woke up, or got out of bed because I really didn’t sleep, to this beautiful #town and guess what? They were having a #Farmer’sMarket… I got some potato dumplings that were absolutely delicious and a perfect #breakfast… I stopped in #Walmart to get a $5 movie… I was thrilled to see they had #TheGrandBudapestHotel. I have rented this but was not in the right frame of mind at the time for a Wes Anderson film and fell asleep… I love #WesAnderson and always wanted to try this movie again…
Here are some bowls made out of that #Burl I keep on talking about… See how beautiful the #wood is and how it looks almost like it’s made of #stone…
I quickly got back on the #road… I was eager to get away from the large crowds and that annoying train station… I was in a horrible mood and needed to get back into #nature…
Yesterday didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to… Once again, technology absorbed another day… I’m not blaming it, I just hate when something as simple as #posting to a #blog is hindered by internet connection… I was at a #McDonalds and couldn’t understand why it just wouldn’t post quickly like it’s supposed to… but hey, that’s my reality and I have to either deal with it or find another way to communicate…
Well, the drive soon calmed me down. It was a gorgeous day out and the #clouds were playing with the #mountains this morning…
Here were a couple of #goats sitting in their #backyard… I was concerned when I saw them lying down… I thought it was going to #rain but I think that’s only true when #cows lie down… They say when a cow is lying down, it is going to rain… It is reserving itself a dry spot by lying down before it rains. Don’t know how true this is but it makes for some great conversation… lol.
We soon entered #Danby,Vermont… I thought this #graveyard was breath taking.. Look at the way they laid it out in the middle of a huge #field… The mountains are so beautiful…
I soon reached the #GreenMountains and entered the #WhiteRocks National Recreation Area… I was shocked to see I still had another 15 minutes to #drive… This #campsite must be way up there…
I got to cross this Tonker Toy looking #bridge which crossed over some huge #rapids… Maybe #fishing will happen on this #campout… One can only hope… Keep your fingers crossed…
The drive got a little hairy here and there… #Branches were scraping my roof and the road got really rough, swinging #TheMilleniumFalcon back and forth…
This road could only fit my vehicle… I was gritting my teeth, hoping no one else came from the opposite direction… It would have been a chore getting this #BuckeOfBolts off to the side considering it felt like it was going to tip over in the middle of the road…
But I made it safely… The road ended and there were a bunch of #tent sites… there was only this one #RV site and it was out in the open… I was a little disappointed until I realized I could #sunbath out here in the open #sun and not have to worry about moving due to #TreeBranches blocking…
It was really warming up so I wanted to go #explore quickly and get back to relax in the #sun… Here’s one of the #campsites and a really nice, little #waterfall… It seems like every site has one of these… #Natures little gift in the #GreenMountains…
Another #stream or #river going right through my temporary #backyard… I will be sleeping like a baby tonight folks, for sure… But enough dilly dallying, there’s a lawn chair, a book and glaring sun waiting for me… Exploring will have to be tomorrow’s task… I’m sorry but at this point I was exhausted… Traveling in this gigantic 32 foot RV is not easy and wipes you out quickly, especially when I had a #night of practically no #sleep…
So, I opened up all the windows on the #Falcon, grabbed my book and we both did some necessary sun bathing… She needed a good drying out after all of that rain earlier this week… She was starting to smell a little #musty and I’m sure my dirty laundry didn’t help any…
After about 3 hours of uninterrupted #heaven, the sun started to retreat behind the #trees… I was feeling a little toasty myself anyway… I am really getting into this book I’m reading… It’s called #TheRoadLessTraveledAndBeyond and is about how we think so simplistic and don’t see the whole picture… It’s not a self help book because I hate them… It’s just a book a psychiatrist wrote, amongst many others, which explains how we think so simplistic about things like #religion, #race and world #politics… This guy has some really good points and is really confirming a lot of my displeasures with our #society and how we think as a #HumanRace… Read it, trust me, it’s not boring at all…
I took a quick picture of this little #creature who decided to camp out right next to me… #Butterflies have to be one of the most intriguing creatures out there… They bring only beauty after devouring to get to this point…
The Millennium Falcon smelled and felt so good inside, I decided to give her a good old scrub down before I scrubbed myself down for the evening…
Millennium Falcon Model shoot!!! She may not look like much on the outside but on the inside, she is deliciously hot… Oh yeah baby!
And here’s a picture of #TheTravelingMac… Nice and squeaky clean before he retires for the night to watch a great film and get some needed sleep… I will be up early tomorrow folks, ready to #explore… Goodnight…
