Pie,Harleys,Cheese...and the Company of Bees

Over the fall break I finally, after 5 years in New England,  made it to Vermont. See the thing is, I graduate this year and since I don't know exactly what I will do, or where I will be next, I've made a small bucket list of things to do before I possibly move to another coast or country and my 'to-do's' just happened to experiencing fall in the Green Mountain State.

So this past Sunday a few friends and I drove into Brattleboro, VT  to catch Annual Dummerston Apple Pie Festival (click to view some of this year's pies in the making). We also ended  up stumbling upon a Harley Davidson convention which had converged at the same location, which together left me with quite an interesting first impression of the state.

Afterwards also had time to grab a tasting of Graton Village Cheese  (I recommend the jalapeno cheese, the cheese that tasted like bacon-you'll know when you eat it - and the spinach and arthicoke dip) and find our way through a 10 clue (or 'cornundrum) corn maze. Yet my photo for today is of none of these moments.
During our downtime chilling in our Vermontian (?) host's garden I had time get up close and personal with some bees, butterflies and grasshoppers.


Obviously I pay attention to the little things in life... sometimes....

At Present: Listening to, New Yorker's at Occupy Wall Street on Chirpbug Wishing I was, also eating dinner
