A nice start.

Great to hear from you jc! I hope you are rested after that long journey! I was getting worried about you, thought maybe you had to sleep in your car one night!
I had sent a post out asking where you were further down on the page so glad you are in VT and starting to make your way around the state, wherever you may go!
Looking forward to your reports and what you have found in terms of color and fun!
Enjoy!

Dear ctyanky,
Today I drive up north to Montpelier to grab a Heady Topper beer and I wasn't disappointed! Then I drive down south to Northfield for the covered bridged. Most of the place is already pass peak and the leave mostly yellow. Tomorrow I will drive around Killington/Rutland.
I want to upload some photo but unfortunately, I had bring a wrong USB cable and it won't fit my camera interface
I have 2 photos from my phone
, I'll try to buy one when I'm hitting the town.

I was their first customer when the beer delivered to the store. It is very fruity and hoppy but has very bitter taste

In order to pull off the "first customer" feat, I'm pretty sure you did have to sleep in your car to be first in line!

JC! YAY! You are in Vermont! This post is so sweet! I love your Heady Topper shot! I can't believe you got some and were first in line. Amazing!
I'm happy you got your Northfield bridge photo too. May many more red covered bridges come your way!
Looking forward to all your finds and adventures...... Have a super time!

Dear all,
I was in monpelier around 10Am and was told that the shipment would come around 1-2Pm. So I go out for a shot, lunch and come back around 1Pm and saw that they're unloading and started to put them in the fridge! The shop keeper just said that i'm the first officially one:)
(Dunno if they already sold some at the back office but who care)
Right now (7:15am) i'm at Kent pond and it is raining
Quite cold and hard to take a photo.
