Family Adventures: Mills Riverside Park



The English Prof and The Playwright came to visit us this weekend.  On Saturday afternoon, we went for a walk at Mills Riverside Park.  That's Mount Mansfield peeking through the clouds.

 






 On the way home, we stopped at our local pie shack to stock up.

  1. Boy do I love pie! There is no place to buy pie here in Norway and although I love to cook, I am not a baker and can not do pies :( I miss pie! Nice to meet you...

    1. I'd miss pie, too. On the other hand, are the Norwegians as good at pastries as the Danes and Germans are? Kringle - I love kringle!

  2. There is a scene in the 1987 adaptation (Kevin Sullivan?) of 'Anne of Green Gables' that looks remarkably like the image you've posted of the rust-colored gable and picket fence over the gravel path. I think Marilla rides through it on a buggy before warning Gilbert that Anne is still, 'very young ...'

    1. Wow, you are devoted! The Maritimes and New England do have a very similar feel. It would be cool to find out there are some Vermont shots, though it would appear filming was all done in Canada: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088727/locations.
