The next day I find another painting waiting for me at Joe's Pond, Vermont.
Between Maine and Montpelier, I could paint for weeks - around every turn is a street or a farm or a lake that I would like to stop for. I finally head south of Burlington to pick up a ferry across Lake Champlain. Boo sleeps through the whole experience as usual. It is a good way to end a fantastic few days of perfect weather and great sights. I am humbled by the shear beauty of this country tucked away in the small towns and the back roads . I head down Scenic Route 9N at the end of the day. I ride up and down the hills along the lakes until the light goes and it gets a little too scenic. A deer jumps out in front of the RV. I fortunately am not going very fast but I am ready to pick up the interstate for the last 10 dark miles to avoid any more surprises. I arrive at Lake George with a campground reservation, get connected and quickly fall asleep.
