HOW I SURVIVED BEING A “LEAF PEEPER” – Day 5 and 6

It was eight days on the road, the rail, and the water! And, let me say up front it was wonderful!

Day five found us traveling to Vermont along the scenic roads of New Hampshire. We stopped along the way at The Brick Store in Bath to step back in time, pick up some maple syrup for the folks back home, see the covered bridge, and have an ice cream.

Then it was on to Vermont’s Green Mountain Flyer in Bellows Falls and near Chester, Vermont for another beautiful ride through the local countryside.

The day ended in the Killington, VT Holiday Inn.

Day six was travel to the Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino in Uncasville, Connecticut. The 34-story 1,200 room hotel was exquisite with spectacular views. The trip included two free meals and you cannot imagine the food presented in both the hotel’s huge buffet rooms, and breakfast was a feast!

Yes, my wife played a few of the 6,300 slot machines, but alas she did not come away a big winner!
