The Fall leaves are starting to change to the beautiful colors of Red, Orange and Gold. The temperatures are now much cooler and it’s so pleasant to walk on the many paths in Stowe.

Every Fashionistas Dream
I experienced every fashionistas dream the other night. A friend of ours from the fashion industry, who was also a personal shopper to celebrities, cleaned out her closet of high end designer clothes. Most of the clothes had never been worn.

A Beautiful Day for a Bike Ride

Pickle lines and Flowers

In the summer of 1950, they began…
