North Hero, Vermont

lc2000


This was our beautiful view everyday while in North Hero Vermont.

Before we go any further I want you to comprehend exactly where I was. I really didn’t know much about Vermont - if you’re like me you think of beautiful fall leaves when you hear “Vermont”. While I still don’t know much, I do know that Burlington is the largest city there and it has a population of less than 40,000! Vermont is small! We could happily live in Burlington - beautiful! But back on track here.

North Hero is a small island in Lake Champlain. Lake Champlain is celebrating it’s 400th year this year and is supposedly the home to Champ - although we never saw him. The world slows down there. It was so peaceful and relaxing I could have stayed for ages.

We got to explore the islands a little while everyone was working. You see, Dennis’s folks are up helping with the North Hero House Inn, so they still had to work while we were there. And Dennis’s aunt works there too. His cousin and partner own and operate the Inn. Hmm, wonder if they need a permanent photographer or two. . .

So, we had some time during the days to wonder the islands and enjoy nature.

Can’t you just feel how slow life is there? If you want to revive I recommend spending some time at the Inn, but beware, the restaurant may add a few pounds to your waistline with their spectacular food!
