leaf season in Vermont

October 17, 2017

There is a reason people flock to Vermont in late September and early October.  Mother Nature puts on a show of color against a background of vintage homes and buildings that is spectacular.  I took in the beauty from my parents farmhouse and our day trips to Chester, Weston, Queechee, and Woodstock.  Here are a few postcard pretty pictures from Vermont…

One of my favorite seats for taking in the view is the nook.  There are even binoculars on the lazy susan!

Picking out the right shade of red was a project in itself before painting the barn!

Always a lovely spot for a meal.  We like to have dinner in the Tavern at the Dorset Inn.

The tiny town of Landgrove (as of 2010 it had a population of 158) has some of the prettiest houses in a gorgeous setting…

Woodstock Vermont was aglow with autumn color…

Just outside of Woodstock is farmhouse pottery.  They sell their beautiful wares all over the country, but this is where the magic happens!

Like me, my mom is a minimalist when it comes to fall decor.

After driving through so many towns, this is where we ended the day with a glass of wine and a fire crackling in the fireplace.  Simply perfect!

      Thank you, Eva. I went to Vermont in late October last year and missed the foliage. So spending time with my parents AND seeing the colors was icing on the cake! 🙂
