VT - Silver Lake State Park

We were on site #36.  A nice long site above a tight curve in the loop, so it gave Morgan a nice perspective to see everything. The sites are all pretty much terraced in this pretty campground.  A babbling brook runs between many of the sites (great for catching crayfish and salamanders.)
Another view of the site - from the road. 
This park has a great day use area with a nice swimming beach.
Yes, Theo is climbing UP the pole - feats of strength!
Morgan was allowed everywhere in the park except the sand beach.  And she really was getting around well!
We visited Sugarbush Farm for some agritainment.  We took a maple walk and learned how they tap trees with hoses, tasted different grades of maple syrup, and tasted a bunch of different cheeses.  Theo also fed some animals and met this calf named Paul.  Morgan was allowed everywhere here as well, except of course the tasting room and shop!

VT - Woodford State Park

We were on site #40, which was a small but comfy waterfront site. We turned the camper sideways for better use of the site.

The access to the water was pretty steep and a bit muddy by the shore, but still a great site!

A view of the lake from the camper's beach. The day use beach is on the left in the distance. Our site was somewhere on the right tucked in the trees.

Theo enjoyed the climber near the camper's beach. I think we'll look for a site closer to this area next time. Nice field for frisbee and a basketball hoop here too.

We drove into Bennington and visited the Battle of Bennington Monument.


Here's the view from up in the monument. You can see three states from up there - VT, NY, and MA!
