Day 1 - into the interior of the earth

On Sunday we headed out for Vermont, listening to Jules Verne's "Journey into the Center of the Earth" read by Matt's favorite British reader who does all the voices and intonations and accents so well. He's so talented.



We decided to get groceries near our destination, rather than cart them all the way from our house. Little did we know just how rural Vermont is, and how many (many!) miles one has to drive to find a grocery store, or rather, a general store. We made a point to buy local Cabot cheese, which we found to be very cheesy, creamy and yummy.
We checked in at Branbury State Park and went about our tasks: I unloaded the car and set up camp and tent, while Matthew gathered and sawed wood.


After a great fire and satisfying Hebrew National hot dogs, we were in bed at 8:15pm totally exhausted.
