In spite of the heavy snow and blizzard that arrived on Boxing Day, we were still able to make our planned trip to see in the New Year in Vermont. An easy 2.5 hour drive got us to the quaint town of Wilmington, which is just 20 minutes away from the ski slopes of Mount Snow.
James got a full day's skiing in and did a great impression of the Milk Tray Man on a day of great conditions and glorious sunshine.....
whilst Daniel loved his first full-on snow experience, once he learned that it's best to keep your gloves on...
Sadly, a bout of illness meant that Jo couldn't do justice to the six course New Year's Eve dinner in the Inn, and James ended up toasting his birthday and seeing in 2011 with other guests at the bar. Never mind - Vermont was beautiful, and given it's on our doorstep we hope to go back soon. Happy 2011 to you all!
The photos are lovely. We can't get over how grown up Daniel has become!! Vermont looked amazing as did the snow in your front garden! Jo, I love your hair, it really suits you!!! Lots of love, from Emer and David xx
