New England Mini-Vaca

We went on a mini vacation a long weekend in October. To see the leaves changing and, well...just to do it. Below are some pictures of our trip. We started off in Maine then went to Vermont





We saw Steven Kings house


A HUGE statue of Paul Bunyon


Ate lobster on the Wharf
Now we are in Vermont...........there


we saw some bug art. This picture is made only with beatles and butterfly and/or moth wings. It was really neat to see. I can't imagine having that kind of patience. It said it took the guy something like 4 years to complete.


Propain tank art. Hank Hill would've been in Propain heaven


Some big creepy giant puppets. That is a real sewing machine, to give you an idea of the size of them. The place was called Bread and Puppet museum. It was just an old barn on the side of the road, no body worked there all the time, and you turned the lights on and off yourself.

Drove under a barn


And sat on a Vermon COWch
Some other things we got to see on this trip but not pictured, included seeing the worlds tallest filling cabinet, visited Ben and Jerry's factory (peace love and ice cream), saw a round church, a land locked ship, several covered bridges, Lake Champlain and the monument to their lake monster Champ, and lots of pretty orange, red and changing leaves.

Oh, this looks like so much fun. We really need to take a trip to the northeast...if nothing else, for the lobster!! I bet it was beautiful with all of the fall colors.
