Change is coming.....

So for those of you who follow this occasionally, I have decided to change it up just a little. I realized that of all the places I have traveled in the past couple years, and the many people I have met, that not everyone has facebook. I usually post my pictures and a short post about some of the places I have seen on there. So I will mix it up a little and add some of the cool spots as well as funny stories that go along with this.
The hearts are where I have been since I graduated from Saginaw Valley.
Right now I am living out in the Beautiful state of Vermont.

I'm doing home health OT for the first time, but due to HIPAA can't share much about the work even when there are some super FUN stories. Oh, well.

Anyways, so my housing is the basement of a bed and breakfast, and of course this summer is when the town decided to remodel the covered bridge not 10 feet from the house. So 7AM the pounding started, and didn't finish until about 4 or 5PM. My poor landlady!

During Green River Bridge Construction/renovation  
After finishing construction (only about 8 weeks later than expected)


I also stopped at Dick and Joanna's in East Middleburry, VT
which was the actual bed and breakfast the Strattford Inn on the long running TV show Newhart was from.



But Dick and Joanna weren't home.


So then I went for a 3 hour horse back ride on an Icelandic horse back ride up in Waitsfield.

This breed of horse is so cute! They were like little teddy bear horses. They are actually considered ponies (less than 14.4 hands), but something about Iceland not following the rest of the world standards makes them a horse. SO COOL! Now I want to go to Iceland and ride them there. But that will be another time.


Also stopped by Lake Champlain on the
Vermont Side for a short relaxing rest. Water is so peaceful!!!




More closer to home in Vermont, I also got to stop by a local high schools fundraiser.


They were raising money for their senior trip by making fresh pressed apple cider. Of course they used McIntosh apples which were perfect. A little sweet, a little tart. MMMmmmm! Also cool to watch it done!



Then, just being in Vermont in the Fall has been spectacular!


I will try to make sure I keep up with this better as I never know where I will go next. So this blog will now be a mix of funny stories, and places you should visit if you ever stop nearby. All in the days of a traveling gypsy Occupational Therapist.
