The Sweet, Beautiful, Creative and Old!

While in Montpelier, Vermont we stopped at
Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks.

The Woodshed Theatre is where we
watched a video about the maple syrup process.
Toured the processing facilities
and were able to walk up to see the maze of plastic 
tubes which is the modern way of collecting sap.

You have come to expect the unusual from our blog. 
Morse Farm also had some unusual "art".
Ben & Jerrys Ice Cream Factory was
 only a few miles away. 
Of course, we enjoyed some yummy ice cream. 
We have seen lots of hanging flower
 baskets on porches, businesses and
light post in many small towns.
So pretty!
Taking back roads is where we find some interesting
things like the Texas Falls. A chance to 
stretch our legs and see a beautiful waterfall.
Crossed Lake Champlain on our way to New York.
One of the reasons we love our campervan 
 is because it can fit just about anywhere. 
Thrilled to find a peaceful spot to camp, 
just south of Lake Placid.

Olympic Ski Jump
Beautiful!
North Creek is a small town in the Adirondack Mountains.
This cool mosaic project took 10 years and is 220 feet long. 
It depicts an ideal spring day in the Adirondack.
So fun and inviting,
 you just want to jump right in!
Amazing what can be accomplished
 when a community pulls together.
There were 2000 plus volunteers.
Do you need an idea on what to do with your old canoe?
More artistic talent along the backroads.

Never thought we would see a
490 million year old fossilized sea bottom!
