It's the Green Mountains, Boys
Lenox, MA to Brattleboro, VTNorthward, ever northward. As much as we enjoyed the Berkshires, we continued our trek north this morning, making our first stop in Bennington, Vermont, in the heart of the Green Mountains. Our letterboxing quest led us to Old First Church, a beautiful village church built in 1805.

The historic cemetery adjacent to the church has graves dating back to the mid 1700's and is the resting place of 75 veterans of the American Revolution, as well as the poet Robert Frost.


Moving east from Bennington, we headed into a very heavily planted area for letterboxing. Unlike most days of this trip, when we've found three or four boxes, we logged into 12 letterboxes today. Plenty more await us tomorrow, and we should reach a new milestone since we finished today with 995 finds.
We saw this sign at a trail head today. It happens to be a trail used by snowmobiles in the winter. But, huh?
