A Vermont Welcome

2017 New England, Road Trip, Vermont

We crossed the border from NY and drove north with the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain on our left and the Green Mountains on our right. One of our first adventures in Vermont was to take the T@B-400 over/through a covered bridge thanks to a Maps app offer to route us around rush hour traffic on Highway 7. In Shelburne we settled into our site before making the short trip into South Burlington for dinner with friends Jane, Jean Elizabeth, and Rich. It was a warm welcome from the get go, a reunion with Jane and JE, and a getting to know you with Rich not to mention the delicious dinner followed by homemade pie. Just don’t ask about the Fascinating Facts Game!

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
