so i FINALLY got to downloading my pics from Vermont (it's a miracle i did it so fast) - here's what i got for ya ..
off we go
after the hail storm - i saw this lil island calling me to visit!
we arrived! - here's our castle
our lil private garden/sitting area
obsessing over the door and slate exterior
knock knock - anyone home?!
car port
figured i'd try all the doors out!
here's the Aveda spa where we enjoyed our massages!
pool - which we never got to - closed at 8pm - wth right?!
i was all about climbing the fence - Joe chickened out!
hot tub and where the yoga classes were
Pot Belly's - yes were pretty pooped here - Joe's hat is crooked, u know he's pooped
this is as much yoga i got in *boo*
doing' the Egyption *had to*
waterfall right at the Vermont outlets
at the outlets in Vermont - this was the "hiking" i got in - i tried!
i called to see if "yoga and hiking clothes" were ok - they said "sure just no mud (as a joke)" - ummm everyone was dressed up but us - oh well - our money was the same color :o)
their fountain and outdoor dining - but like i said - it was COLD!
Joe caught me off gaurd - it was a VERY serious conversation going on!
3 martini's later - u KNOW i had too!
i told Joe to 'give it to him' - so he did
and btw - THAT'S what Joe packed for 'hiking' clothes - can u believe it?!
YES in deed i jumped out of the car - made traffic stop - so the porcipine could cross the road!
finally made it to the diner Joe saw
it was 45 mins away - not in town like he thought
(notice i've only been in North Face gear)
where i got my Niece's presents from the trip
Vermont was exactly like Joe's lake house in upstate New York - lots of trees, trails, mountains, lakes, streams, farms, and small towns
do you see the wood piece with the "hole" - i begged the guy to sell it to me - he made it for a designer in NYC - i begged and pleaded - no luck - but down the road - i hit GOLD! *pics to come of purchases*
on our way home
TOLD YA - PICTURE OVERLOAD!
and that's just a taste - i didn't even show you inside the castle - and all the things i bought - *ekk*
HOW WAS EVERY ONE'S WEEKEND?!
**GiveAway Starts Tomorrow**
