Vermont ...Day 1

These are pictures from the back of my sister's house...beautiful and peaceful.
She lives in Barre, Vermont which is about 5 miles from the capital,Montpelier.
We got here around 11 on Thursday. The last time I was here 2 yrs ago there were 2 ft of snow on the ground so it was nice to see the green scenery. Vermont is a very "green" state. They are very ecologically conscious. In the airport they had separate trash cans for trash,bottles, and newspapers.
Today we went to downtown and walked around and then went to Morse Farms where they make maple syrup and sugar. I LOVE maple sugar candy! My sister and brother in law took us to eat at a really nice steakhouse in Montpelier. Great food. We walked around downtown to walk off some calories.
We plan to go to downtown Montpelier tomorrow which has a lot of independent artists and a farmer's market.
