BEST FALL FOLIAGE DRIVE IN VERMONT
If you have squirming kids you
may not want to drive up and down the
highest mountains in Vermont to
see your annual delights of red and orange and yellow leaves
waving in the breeze.
If you are a senior citizen you might
be cautious of health concerns
at higher elevations.
Your best fall foliage drive
is from the Burlington area
down Rte. 100
where you will pass by mountains
in all of their glory
but you will seemingly dance
along the highway
as you steer your car along the curves
this way and that
but not ever so much up and down,
just like a dancer
you and your car will find your way
in the valleys of the mountains
rather than at their peaks
as you follow Rte 100 south.
You will pass Sugarbush Ski Resort,
and keep going south
and pass
Killington Ski Resort
and keep going south on Rte 100
and pass Okemo Mountain Ski Resort
and just a little more south
and find Rte 103 south
which will take you into
Chester, Vermont
at the intersection of Rte 103
and Rte 11.
Little boys and their grandfathers
will be thrilled this saturday,
Sept. 29, 2007 watching the
LIVE FIRING
of two CIVIL WAR CANONS
in Chester, Vermont
as part of the
Vermont Civil War Expo.
Little girls and their grandmothers
can dance to live period music
on the Green in Chester, VT. 05143
Chester is a little village, population
3000
and has almost no crime
so it is a perfect location for
family events
and safe for small children
and senior citizens.
Chester is a world away from places
like Burlington, Vermont
with its rows of alcoholic beverage
drinking establishments
geared to the thrill seeking
college students.
Chester is located in Windsor County,
Birthplace of Vermont.
For more information on the
Vermont Civil War Expo
this saturday, Sept. 29, 2007
you might contact
Russ Slora
eighteenthvtregt@aol.com
The activities will go from 10 a.m.
to early evening.
Chester, VT has about 17 Bed & Breakfasts.
Rte 100 is a leisurely drive
and is NOT FAST LIKE HWY 89.
You might want to think about
why we have Civil War Re-Enactments
in Vermont
and not
Vietman War Re-Enactments
or
Iraq War Re-Enactments.
