Going to Vermont

April 27, 2021

Wow, we can finally go to Vermont after spending the winter staying at home away from friends, restaurants (yeah, I had to cook), or anywhere else due to covid-19. Time was dragging along but here we are the end of April and we are on our way north for the summer.

Flying instead of taking the train

We decided to fly to Vermont this year instead of taking the train. We found a United flight that flew into Manchester, New Hampshire only two hours from the campground so we made our reservations. Then we received an email from the airline saying our flight was cancelled. CANCELLED???? Yep, due to Covid-19, they reduced flights and ours was one of them. Back to the computer to find another flight. We found Southwest to Manchester, NH so we booked our flight which arrived earlier and was cheaper; some good does come from bad.

We now only had one problem, trying to figure out how to pack all our stuff in two carry on suitcases. We could just put the stuff in the trunk of our car and go but now we were limited to two small bags that fit under the airline seats or up in the overhead. It was a test, but we did it. It wasn't very pleasant wearing our masks all the time.

It was 60 degrees when we arrived and raining for days. Today we had some sunshine and got a lot done. We are now all set for the summer.
