Classic Northeast Autumn

Along the banks of the Winooski River Vermont. The leaves to the south as we drove up were brighter, hoping to catch them again as we drive south. Did some maple shopping , gin shopping ( a Christmas present)  and chocolate shopping. Lake Champlain chocolates as soooo good. Stopped at Ben and Jerry's for ice cream ( buttered bourbon with whiskey swirl-only at the factory).Only disappoint of the day was the cabot cheese store was closed. Oh , well, maybe we can get up to the cider mill for cider doughnuts tomorrow.Had dinner again with Fi and will have breakfast tomorrow with her before we leave.
