August 25: Some Interesting Thoughts

 
It is obvious that we are in New England.  I love the old churches.  There is supposedly an old Catholic parish right across the road from our soon to be apartment.  We will check it out in the next couple of days.  I am truly looking forward to the idea of walking to church.
 Once I know more I will share what I learn.
We are staying at Suzanne's B & B in Cambridge Village, VT., until the apartment is ready for us to move in.  The house was built in the 1890s and has maintained its charms even with the necessary updates to bring it to code.  Cola, the owners' rescue dog, is kind of like a watchdog and a side kick.  He seemed a bit disappointed that we did not bring a dog with us.  This is a very pet friendly bed and breakfast.  The proprietors are charming and have helped us to figure out a number of solutions to things while we are finding our way around.  If you want to visit us, this B&B actually accepts kids and pets.
(We may have to reconsider something like this or a retreat house.  I am really liking our experience, but time will tell.)
This is where we are going to live in Fairfax, VT.  The students that are in the upstairs apartment are in the process of cleaning and moving out.  The place has a potential to be cozy and homey, but it will take us a little effort to achieve it.  Photos will probably not be sent out right away.  There are curtains to be made, rugs to be considered, and several other items to acquire.  Might actually be able to have the full long table for my HQ.  Life is good!

Robin, any tips on how I can comment. Have tried a plethora... Loving your road trip saga. Tried to email you, not sure about a valid gmail address. Wondering if you met up with a gift card from Barnes and Noble intended to fill your Kindle needs during those long winter nights in Vermont. Sent it to MN right after retirement gala... Let me know if I need to track it down. Love to both. Sue p.s. No mustache? SUPER! p.s.2 This comment may actually work!
