1 Mom and Pop's Sugar House. This is the syrup that Adam buys every year. It wasn't until this year that I realized why. Their property is right next to ours. So the trees they "sugar" are as close as you can possibly get to getting syrup from our own land.2 We enjoyed an early birthday dinner at Elixir in White River Junction, VT. It was so delicious!
3 A giant can of syrup outside of the Maple Grove Farms Factory. We wanted to take a tour, but they were remodeling the floor so we had to settle for the gift shop.
4 We had a great time playing Scrabble almost every night.
5 I so enjoyed having time to read. During our vacation I was able to finish the last two books of the Twilight series (Eclipse and Breaking Dawn). Such good books - especially when you curl up next to a cozy wood burning stove.
6 A giant block of cheese painted on the wall at the Cabot Creamery. We toured the creamery and saw how they make various cheeses.
7 The Maple Grove Farms Factory (that we couldn't tour)
8 Mom and Pop's Maple Syrup Sign
9 Stirring the cheese curd and adding salt before it gets pressed into molds.
10 Adam's Dad's Headstone
11 Mom and Pop's Maple Syrup - did you know it takes 40 gallons of Maple Sap to make 1 gallon of Maple Syrup
12 Cheese samples at the Cabot Creamery. I dared Adam to ask one of the employees "Who cut the cheese"? He wouldn't do it, and I couldn't do it without busting out laughing. Heck, I'm LOLing right now just thinking about it. "Who cut the cheese"? ROFLMAO I'm such a sucker for potty humor.
