Get a cider doughnut at that cider place on the tourist route through Stowe! YUM!

Oh, yeah, baby.

Heh. Yeah, this was a thing last week.

We went to Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH. I think it was when I was first pregnant with Ben, maybe even before we told our folks. It was late May or early June, so we didn't even give heat and A.C. as much thought as we might have, had it been July or August. It also ended up being an early heatwave. Between the heat, humidity, and pregnancy-induced nausea, if I wasn't in the pool or the shower, I was not what you'd call a fun date. I was more what you'd call a baby howler monkey.

An ex-co-worker of mine (actually, the person whose job I took over when I became a permanent hire) moved up there last year, and she recognized the place instantly when I mentioned it to her.

Right ON! I am so damn proud of my bro.

Emeline & Annabel stories are so cute! (I love Em's black shirt!)

health~ma to Toto!

IOmememeN, I'm heading to Florida this afternoon to finalize my plans to move. If everything goes according to plan I will only be a Michigan resident for only one more month! Yay!

This is the outside of the bro's restaurant: [link]

And the back window, through which you can watch my bro doing his Iron Chef routine: [link]

That sucks. If my bro hadn't been so busy, he would have taken good care of you.

We didn't really expect or agitate for any attention, as we are Invisible Friends, and, well, you know.

I hope to someday meet your brother, just 'cause he sounds like such a cool guy. We'll be back. The brewer would have had to spit in our beer or something to keep us away from the amazing food and beer.

Cider donuts are THE BOMB and don't actually taste like cider. faintly apple-y, but mostly like homemade old fashioned fried donuts.

Yuuuum. Now I want a cider donut.

Cute babies!

Hope the cats are okay and any medical treatments needed are cheap and painless, fred. Also, happy birthday!

Good luck with moving towards actually moving, beathen. How exciting!

I had coffee and no actual food for breakfast, thinking I'd have a donut when I got to sork. Forgetting that the guy who brings in donuts on Friday is on vacation. Alas. I need to teleport up to Vermont, clearly.

Now I want a cider donut.

Yeah you do!!!!

Steph, are you all staying in Waterbury, or are you relocating somewhere else?

Right now Dad and I are at the Comfort Inn in Berlin, which is just barely north of Montpelier proper.

The B&B where we're moving, which is also where the wedding and shindig are, is in Moretown, which is pretty close to Waterbury.

That looks/sounds lovely! How did your brother and future SIL find it/decide on it?

(is a hoor for Vermont wedding stories at charming B&Bs)
