Autumn Sweater

Seneca State Park NY to Portland Maine (10/22):

Today was our autumnal leaves day, though we’ve been seeing beautiful leaves for the past week or two. But the leaves in New England were full of vibrant color that seemed to pop. We stopped in Bennington, VT for some lunch (local, organic, and sustainable, natch) before visiting Robert Frost’s grave and a Revolutionary War monument obelisk that gives a view of the Green Mountains and surrounding area. The highways here were smaller and more crowded that the ones we’ve been on outside of the East Coast, but they wound through lots of leafy scenery. We arrived in Portland after dark and spent the night in a hotel and watched political ads for and against the upcoming gay marriage vote.
