Plainfield
One of our favorite things to do in a small town, is to check out the local hardware store.
The little local ones always have the neatest stuff and this one had it all - even a snack bar with creamies, large selection of beer, wine and produce. At the recommendation of another customer, I bought a tomato and it tasted just like the ones from my grandmother's garden. So good! And even better was the Maple Creamie.

Cabot
Another unique hardware store - this one with gas pumps, a bar and a cafe



St Jonesbury
Some Larger Towns
Montpelier - smallest state capital in the United States with a population of just under 8,000 The state capitol building's gold leafed dome is currently being re-furbished, sorry we missed seeing that

Big Bob says this old gas station is beautiful
Barre - this one is a little bigger - population is little under 10,000 calls itself the "Granite Capital of the World"
And as you all know, we never miss the Harley Dealer - No shirts this time but they had dip-dots, the first place we have found them. Dip-dots are small circles (therefore "dots") which cover the top of the oil "dip stick" (for measuring the level of the engine. Big collector item.
Another of our favorite things is to visit old cemetery. Some of the unusual memorials
Because of their granite history, there are statues are everywhere - one of many
