Weekend in Vermont

We always talk about taking little weekend trips and how much fun it would be, but we never go so far as to actually plan them. So we finally got our act together and planned a weekend in Vermont.

We stayed at the Inn at Mount Snow. The first night we had a standard room, but the second night we were upgraded to a lovely suite with a fireplace and a whirlpool tub!

On Saturday we went up Rt 100 to the Vermont Country Store and some of the other little stores in Weston. Then we continued on to to the Simon Pearce shop in Quechee. On Sunday we took the chairlift up Mount Snow to check out the views before heading on home (with a stop at Yankee Candle on the way).

Getting away for the weekend was so refreshing. I don't know why we didn't do this sooner...

Watching the glassblowers at Simon Pearce (they were amazing!) and looking at the river behind the store.

Mount Snow


The views from the top of Mount Snow were gorgeous. The chairlift ride back down was great too because we got to look out over the mountains. I haven't been skiing in a few years, but seeing the trails definitely got me thinking about breaking out the skis again.
