Day 6 Vermont

We woke up under the cover of the pavilion. The rain playing a steady tune on the metal roof. I could hardly hear it until I put my hearing aids in. This meant a rain delay. Just what the doctor ordered. We still had one hum dinger of a climb to look forward to and a few others to kick my behind, but the day would be abbreviated once we did start
I love the Vermont countryside. The pastures. Farms. Creeks and rivers. The hills. Not so much. The ride was wet and chilly, perfect for more strenuous fun. Thrilled NOT to be cycling with temperatures like home, low 90s and feeling like 100+. Thank you, Lord!
Our intention was to reach one of 3 campgrounds. In looking at the maps addendum, they no longer existed. Crap. A hurricane back a few years ago washed them away. Yikes! We settled on a B&B.  Since food was a good ride away, we bargained a dinner deal. Breakfast was included, of course. Duck eggs! A first....
We covered about 35 miles.
