America by Rail NEW ENGLAND FALL FOLIAGE - 2018 Day 4

Day 4 - October 4th

Then we headed to the Vermont Country Store in Weston, VT, 
the store that has everything, especially from your childhood.


This 1953 Chevy makes a nice store display.


Entrance to the store.  
They certainly put on a beautiful seasonal display!


Tree in parking lot had beautiful color, see our tour bus in the back ground?



On our way to the next stop, we came upon the Lincoln Bridge, 
West Woodstock, Vermont.



Have you ever seen a more excited group wanting to get to the next stop?



Next stop Town Square.

And across the street was......



....The Middle Bridge, this shot is from the south away from the square.


Some of us ate Lunch at the White Cottage, 
others ate next door at the Woodstock Farmers Market

After lunch we relaxed by the Ottauquechee River' which ran behind both places.
Then we were off to the Billings Farm.

After a visit that ended too soon at the Billings Farm we headed to
Meredith, VT for a quick stop at the Queechee Gorge.

Our group picture Paul took, while Paul was shooting us I took his picture above!




I thought Paul was waving me to hurry up, actually he was signaling double thumbs because I wasn't the last one to get back to the bus!

Too soon it was time to end the train ride, our last view from the train
