Vermont Vacation


I'm not sure if you would have picked it up from my last post but I've been away in Vermont.
We stayed at this wonderful spot, owned by some wonderful people.  Doing crazy things like:
Sitting on a porch drinking beer and reading
Hiking
Eating campfire food and chips... pretty much nothing else
Driving through mountains
Finding chocolate and purchasing ice cream scoops for friends
... and yoga

It seems odd to me that yoga and campfire hotdogs went so well together but, what can I say, they did.
I will also be forthright in admitting that I now need a vacation from my kids.  Admittedly, they were pretty easy going since we did no cooking other than hotdogs, hamburgers and seriously burnt chicken. They were so busy eating 'real' peanut butter (aka. the junk kind that we never buy) and fruit loop/sugar puff/tiny box cereal (that we also never buy) that they really didn't care about much else.


Prohibition Pig in Waterbury VT is a place you must visit if you're into good beer and house smoked meat.
We did provide them with a couple of restaurant meals and of course the requisite Ben and Jerry's visit.
Since this is our last week of summer, here are some things that I wish for you during your last few days of freedom (?)
Eat Ice Cream

Shameless Selfie - B&J ice cream in hand
Find a Brewery and drink something


Eat some Chocolate for crying out loud


Look up.  Look way way up


And don't forget to look down

Love this! Family vacations are awesome and you look great :) Always do yoga on vacation - it's a requirement

I did do yoga - TWICE. Getting into a runner's yoga practice that seriously works the hips and core. It's pretty cool and it's been revolutionary for my running form. Thanks for the props on the looks ;-) xoxo
