We spent our second night in Vermont and began our day with a farm harvest festival--games for the kids, demonstrations such a corn husking bee and making butter, Jersey dairy cows to visit, an old farmhouse to tour.

| The fall foliage did not disappoint! |
And then we toured a granite quarry in Barre, Vermont. The granite from that quarry is used in lots of monuments because it is so consistent throughout. Fascinating to visit!
 |
| Playing on the granite bowling alley, a concept that didn't take off because granite does not have enough friction |
 |
| As technology advances, only twelve men actually work now in the quarry |
With granite "Kindles" in hand, we started our drive through New Hampshire.
