A preview of what's to come.
I did some hiking in Vermont yesterday, and it really showed how far along the foliage colors have developed already!
In Woodstock, VT. Cars can drive across this bridge so I was a little worried about standing in the middle of the road taking this. A photographer has to do what they have to do. Happy Saturday to you all!!
Built in 1826, a 189 foot long timber-framed covered bridge crosses the Ottauquechee River in the Taftsville village of Woodstock, Vermont . It is probably one of the most photograph covered bridges in the state.
I hiked up to the Stowe Pinnacle for the view right before sunset. The view was remarkable from the top,. But the trail itself was treacherous and I slipped about 10 times on the way because of the mud.
There's lots to like about the old Central Vermont main across the Green Mountain State, with lots of scenic trestles and old stations lining the right of way. The line's normal freight trains (NECR 323 and 324) typically traverse the railroad in darkness, but this summer's Vermont Railway detour trains provided a welcome opportunity to shoot freight on the line in better light. Although the trains have used leased GMTX GP38s instead of VTR red, they still look great against the scenery of Vermont. On our last of three days chasing the detours, we shot northbound RDBD soaring over the Winooski River between Waterbury and Richmond.
Montpelier, Vermont
Fun fact: Montpelier is the only state capital city in the U.S. without a McDonald's restaurant. Thanks, Lois, for that information.

One of nine bridges in Vermont with a Burr Arch design. Please note that the pipe protruding from the ground is not the periscope of a Danish submarine mistaking Green Mountain (Vermont) with Greenland. They also didn't confuse Iceland with Greenland - only a complete moron could do that!
I set this capture up while there in this pretty setting located in Vermont, but my daughter was busy there in the scene taking a capture of a salamander at that time :)
A fun outing we had together this past year, and something to be very thankful for on this day.
Happy Thanksgiving
We spent a couple of days up in Ludlow, Vermont, and you can't spend time in that area without visiting the Vermont General Store in Weston! If ever in the area, and you want to kill an hour, or more, I highly recommend a visit! With so much to see (and photograph if you are so inclined) you will not be disappointed, I promise! Everything from penny candies to kitchen utensils, and hats and shirts to neat old toys. Local cheeses and other treats too, and there's stuff everywhere and in a great and pretty large post and beam store. And there's a nice old Advanced Design Chevy pickup outside full of flowers in the bed. The place is a winner...and I took a bunch of shots with many more to be posted. I hope you'll enjoy them!
This could be a tight squeeze as Amtrak train 55, the southbound Vermonter, approaches the tunnel beneath historic downtown Bellows Falls, Vermont on October 3, 2019.
Vermont was supposed to have a significant snowfall on Friday and Saturday and into Sunday morning. 300 metres down the road from this there was virtually no snow on Sunday morning. This is not a B&W photo.
