Thought I'd share a few more pics of some cool old stuff in Vermont. That's one purpose of this blog, right? Here we go:
Here is The Inn at Weatherfield.
As soon as I saw the photo, I knew this was the place to stay.
It was on twenty acres, had beautiful outdoor areas, and all the early historical charm you could ask for!
Side view of the inn, built in 1792.
The innkeepers are Bulgarian, and have only been running the property for six months.
They were amazing!
The restaurant in the inn was fantastic.
The old posts and beams, and multiple fireplaces were enchanting.
Must be so cozy in fall and winter.
A couple of the covered bridges we saw.
This is the longest covered bridge in Vermont.
The sign on the front of this one says, "Walk your horses or pay $2 fine."
And here's one last interesting discovery (to me at least) from the Vermont Antique Mall. But first, here is a pic of a container I bought a couple of years ago at a thrift store. I keep it in my blue and white room and use it as a plant pot.
It was the perfect size for a plant.
It was just a couple of dollars, and I thought it was a lot more interesting than the typical plant pot.
These were black and white instead of blue.
Each one has a different Currier and Ives-type scene.
There is no maker mark anywhere on them, so I don't know who made them or when.
I just loved them though!
Well, now I'm not just wondering about what happened to the lid of mine, but where his two friends went? Did they all break? I do wonder sometimes about the back story of things you see in thrift stores, like, how does one single china cup end up on a shelf? Or 3 salad plates and nothing else. There must have been more, right?
Pretty sure no one else ever wonders about these things.
Someone's got to do it, I guess.
Might as well be you. :)
