Vermont, Green Mountains

Last weekend we made a trip to the Green Mountains in Vermont. The initial idea was just a day trip from Boston, but it became a whole weekend. We found a place to stay in Chester (the Hugging Bear Inn) and visited Brattleboro, Hapgood Pond and the Griffith/Baker Trail (photos below). Driving Highways 5 and 12 on both sides of the Connecticut River was wonderful.

Anton took this photo while riding the subway with Carmen. I believe they were on the C Green line. Anton submitted the photo to our 2nd photo competition last weekend. It did not win, but I think it is very good. It tells a simple story, but is not simplistic. It is direct, it shows that Anton is not afraid to approach a person with the camera.
