It was very cloudy, rainy, and cold during my visit to Vermont, and previously I posted the plethora of cloud pictures I took there. Here are my other photos from last weekend’s trip there for the painting workshop I blogged about yesterday.

Other than the workshop, I visited the Vermont Country Store for the first time. I bought there a wonderfully thick flannel nightgown with no lace, and maple cream filled leaf cookies, which you might want to try; see photo of the box below–I thought they were yummy.

I also had a lovely dinner with my gracious hostess at Positive Pie in Hardwick (see the huge dimly lit pizza below) and got a tour of the Hardwick Gazette (see first few photos below). And I had a fabulous breakfast at the Butler’s Pantry in Stowe, Vermont, which you can see in the last photo below. I totally recommend having breakfast there if you are in the area, and I wish it was closer to home!

I loved Vermont’s covered bridges, the tree lined hills, and the majestic vistas. I hope to return when the weather is better for hiking!
