Day 6 - Montpelier, VT

Somebody gave this guy sunglasses..






The dying man is actually the sculptor and the lady is his wife





That'll be my gravestone :)

Wonder what this one means...

Breakfast in Vermont with the family


Alice writes: hi folks, on Sunday the Creator rests (I mean the creator of this blog, of course) so there will be more pictures than text.

After a nice breakfast with real bread, we first walked Syd and then drove to the town of Barre (pronounced "berry") which is only a few miles down the road from Montpelier.

There we visited the Hope Cemetery - a graveyard containing a plethora of neat granite gravestones produced by the local Italian sculptor population.
Check out some of the photos above - some unusual stuff going on there!

After having a vegetarian, wholefoods buffet (very yummy!) there was a little break in the program which some of us spent snoozing, others reading.

In the evening Dave, Tim, and I went to see the movie "Sicko" by Michael Moore.

For all my German friends, he's the same guy that made "Fahrenheit 911" and "Bowling for Columbine" - just ask Dorle, he knows what I'm talking about :).

Very interesting, scaring and cleverly made, as usual.

Now we're about to have a late dinner on the back porch and tomorrow morning Tim and I will head out towards Pennsylvania. After resting for 2 days, it'll be another long haul. Will change our routing a bit, but will let you know about that tomorrow - if we have wifi, that is.

Gutes Naechtle!

Morningly check of emails, blogs, bank accounts, etc.
