At the Vermont rest station we stopped at, we had a nice chat with the information person on duty. He gave us lots of useful information and even gave us some free food! He even allowed us to get some hot water from the coffee bar and we made some ramen. The next day, we made our way into Vermont and made some stops: Ben & Jerry's, a cheese store and an orchard store. We were able to secure free samples at the last two places, all of them delicious.
After that, we made our way to New Hampshire, where the Old Man of the Mountain used to be. Unfortunately, my camera card ate some of those pictures, so I no longer have them. I might also mention that New Hampshire has an awesome motto/thing on their license plate: Live Free or Die. Truly, words to live by.
We continued toward Mount Washington and the Mt. Washington Inn, and, even though it was cloudy, there were plenty of awesome sights. (Pictures have been eaten.:( ) Maine was our next stop, which was nice, and we even got to visit the other Portland. The Atlantic was a first time see and there was an interesting park that used to contain Battery 201, a gunnery station (with a 25 mile range) that was closed at the end of WWII. Now we are in Massachusetts, after having driven back through New Hampshire. Our next main stop is back in New York, where Austin needs to pick up his suit for the wedding, which is on Sunday.
