Pumpkin picking & carving - 10/8/16

Our first stop was Boyden Winnery - Cambridge, VT. Joe sampled a few of the local wines and bought a bourbon barrel aged maple syrup. 
Stella picked out our three pumpkins 
and helped Mommy carry them to the truck. 

Stella was a big help with cleaning out the pumpkins, Dad and Mom did the carving. 
Toda....all finished! 
An owl, a cat and......
a witch. Boo! Unfortunately the cold weather did a number on our pumpkins they didn't make it to Halloween. Lesson learned for next year....carve them a little closer to Halloween. Additional photos of Boyden Family Winery. 
We were advised to stop at The Burger Shack on their last weekend of the season. Glad we did! Muy Bueno! 
Cheese!

Lake George camping trip 9/30-10/02/16

Our last camping trip of the season was spent at Lake George, NY. King Phillips Campground (site #M2) probably our favorite site we camped at this season. Very private site, level, free cable, wifi and close to the playground. 
Mom relaxing while Stella had fun with her puzzle game before bed. 
Hello Mr. Moose!
Lots of things to do in Lake George...even a steam boat we will save for our next trip. 
Downtown Lake George and the many shops, restaurants and attractions. 
Stella found a chair that she will not outgrow.....
neither will Dad. 
Time for some gelato! 
Picked up some local bbq to eat that evening, followed by s'mores! 
While shopping we picked up "magic fire" and pop-it snaps that Stella seemed to really enjoy.
