A week in Vermont

We arrived in Vermont's southwest corner, right at the peak of autumn colors. We visited the Bennington Battle Monument, which stands 306ft tall and commemorates the Battle of Bennington, a turning point in the Revolutionary War fought on August 16, 1777.

Enjoying their Vermont Apples before the tour begins.

The tour took us up into the monument where the row of windows are near the top.

The view from the top-

You can see Vermont, Massachusetts and New York from here.

Afterwards we continued to explore by walking down colorful Memorial Drive.

We came upon a cemetery next to a historical church.

Robert Frost happens to be buried here, so we visited his grave where he was laid to rest along with his wife and 5 (adult) children.

Then we went back to our campground, which we had mainly to ourself since it closed for the winter on the day we left.
