Vermont Vacations

We trekked up to Sharon, VT again with our ward. We enjoyed perfect weather, loads of friends, and the peaceful Vermont atmosphere.
We hiked to the top of Patriarch Hill with the primary (around 3-4 miles). You can see the Joseph Smith monument in the background.

Senior primary was invited if they brought a water bottle. Junior primary was invited if they brought a parent.

The wildlife is always a feature here. This year the kids collected at least 50 frogs and put them in the bottom of a canoe. Lance and Dani found a skunk skulking about their tent.

We played at the river. Even the adults got in on the action and a found a small cliff to dive from.
Aaahhhh. (credit to EP for the photo)


Church goers- a little scraggly and slightly smokey, but they had a shower the night before and they were mostly clean.

So fun! Wish we could've come. Figure out a Saturday you guys can come down for a beach trip and lobster. Or maybe Thursday's Rosh Hashanah or whatever it's called.
