Vermont

Day 13...

I'll let the pictures tell most of the story for this blog entry. Vermont is great. All of the photos are taken from my family's porch, right on Lake Bomoseen.



^ First, here are Uncle Bill and Aunt Sara in Philly. Aunt Sara follows the blog with some regularity, so here she is *on* the blog. Note their monstrous dog, Bonzo. Huge Rottweiler, but a nice dog. Ashoka and the kids got along famously with him.



^ Tara with my Mom and Dad.



^ On Lake Bomoseen, a gaggle of Canadian geese were swimming by. Aidan and Jonah went out to the boat to get a closer look. It's a mundane event on the lake, but an exciting one for boys returning from India.



^ The boys on the boat.



^ Aidan with binoculars.



^ Then a storm rolled in. It was breathtaking. The pictures below are of break that followed the rain and preceded sunset. Click on the images for a better view. Without a doubt, the pictures don't do justice to how amazing it was.






Then, seen below, the lake calmed to a glass-like state. Beautiful.





What follows is a sunset from another night. Unreal. Note - the thing that looks like a UFO is actually a bottom of a hummingbird feeder.
