Burlington, Vermont

The wedding went well yesterday, even if it was a bit cool for an outdoor wedding...the setting was gorgeous, the receptions was great fun, and we could see the Milky Way (and our breath) as we left the reception that evening. Tonight we are at the Hilton in Burlington and this is our view, taken from the hotel window:

Vermont Teddy Bear factory

Fred insisted that we visit the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory Saturday morning before the wedding, which wasn't until late afternoon. We had quite a nice visit. A few pics from the factory tour... the first one is the very first teddy bear made by the founder. The rest are from the factory and store.

Our New England Vacation, part 1

Fred and I went to Vermont to attend the wedding of our neighbor's daughter. And squeeze in a mini vacation. So far, it's been great. A bit of rain as we crossed Lake Champlain on the ferry, and it got rather cool, but overall, it's been beautiful since we left Virginia on Thursday.

Below, Fred and I on the Lake Champlain ferry on Friday, October 8th. It was cold and damp. A professional photographer took our picture with my little Pentax. : )
