Rather than race to the airport and wing back home, Mary Ann and I spent the day in the rent car driving around the area. I think Vermont is particularly nice. With the hills and long river valleys — added to the 50 mph speed limit, it is a pleasant place. If it weren’t for the rain heading in from all directions, we would probably stay in New England for several more days, but as it is, if the airline co-operates, we will head home tomorrow.
