I ran up to Burlington for the weekend to see my friends Matt and Alex. As happens sometimes, I got so engrossed in conversations that I forgot to get photos of them. Anyway, it was great to see them!!
Vermont is just charming. Everything seems tiny, natural, earnest, practical and cozy. The last time I was there, I also made my pilgrimage to Ben & Jerry’s, so I skipped it this time. I think next time, I’ll put B&J’s back in!
