This morning I did not jump out of bed to ride the wagon, but did catch it going by and really that was good enough. My view was better than the folks on the wagon.
The next photo is an attempt to show how nicely landscaped some of the permanent trailers were. The light was not too good, but notice the flowers planted on the rock and the landscaping in front. There was nice upholsted patio furniture on the deck and
a lovely bed with flowers and hostas in the back also.

Took almost four hours. First we backtracked into NH to a nearby welcome center as we had no info on that state. Then took the scenic route back which means a lot of 30mph road. Looked for a place to eat in one town, but didn't find it. Happened into Hanover, NH, didn't know Dartmouth was there. Did soon. Found lots of places to eat, not many to park. Found a CVS where they threatened to tow if you did not shop there. Shopped there and left the bag prominently on front seat. Found a really nice place to eat and enjoyed a nice lunch. Had enough leftover for tonight.
Our arrival at Queechee Pine Valley KOA Campground was marred by the fact that we were assigned the worst spot in the place. It was next to the pool and so narrow that if we opened out awning, it would overshadow the flower beds around the pool. Can understand if we were only staying one night, but we are staying three. Think they save larger sites for larger rigs but this one was ridiculous. They did change us to another when we asked, but why did we have to?

After setting up we went to see Quechee Gorge and yes it is deep. Then we 
explored the area around there and saw a couple of covered bridges. Things last a long time up here because they do not have termintes and mildew. Went by a country club and Gene remarked on a ski lift above it, then said, "I have skiied there!" The scenery is so Norman Rockwell or maybe Currier and Ives....or somebody. Winding lanes, overhanging trees, some turning colors, covered bridges, mill ponds, barns, cows. Rockwell is from Vermont.

At one campground there were different French Canadians there on consecutive nights and Gene joked that must be the French site. One of those guys brought two chairs out to his campfire and the dog promptly jumped into one. The fellow fussed and gestured until the dog got out of that chair and into the other one. A little later when the guy got up to add wood to the fire, the dog again changed chairs!! Again the guy made him go back to his own chair. This was a hoot! But seems like we have heard French everyday we have been here.
Does your brain ever play tricks on you? I think mine does. When I was guiding Gene backing into our spot today, I was distracted by a move
ment a few sites down. I glanced over and my brain said, "Oh, there is a man walking a deer." Then I thought," Whatever am I thinking?" and took another look. I think it was a golden colored Greyhound, but I swear when the dog had his head down, he looked just like a deer. These two balloons went over while I was cooking supper and Gene was outside reading. I guess you know that if you click on the photos, they will enlarge.
