I absolutely love bicycle riding through The Champlain Islands. I'm a novice rider...meaning I ride a road bike, I carry a pack on my bike and my riding attire usually includes gym shorts and a tie-dyed t-shirt. I'm riding for the pure joy of getting some exercise while enjoying the scenery.
Concert at the Vineyard | Vacation Rentals In Vermont
Snow Farm Vineyard's Summer Concert Series is so much fun! We paired Snow White wine with our picnic of blackened shrimp, tomato & mozzarella salad, cheese, baguettes and blueberries. So good!

Ferry Ride - VT to NY | Vacation Rentals In Vermont
I haven't been on the ferry in a long time. But every time I go, I definitely enjoy the ride. Today's brisk autumn air, bright sunshine and lots of fluffy clouds under the baby blue sky made for the most enjoyable ride. As I arrived at Gordon Landing in Grand Isle, I spied this SUV Limo.

Champlain Islands Candy Lab | Vacation Rentals In Vermont
That "Gelato" flag was waving to me yesterday when I was nearby in South Hero. But it was late and I guessed the Champlain Islands Candy Lab was closed. I knew my mission today. I was going to ride my bike from Grand Isle to South Hero ensuring I counter-balanced any sweet calories I'd be consuming.

It's apple picking season! The apples are ready at Allenholm Farm in South Hero. We've already picked a 1/2 peck in a matter of a few minutes! Only a couple of apples are left from that outing.

Watch Storm Roll By Grand Isle, Vermont
Across The Gut of Lake Champlain, I could see rain clouds over the Adirondacks of New York State. This would be a wonderful opportunity to get a time-elapsed video as the storm moved our way. I set up my iPad inside behind a tinted window to protect it from the weather.
