Last day of our trip

Today we'll be driving home.  We're about 5 hours' drive away from Montpelier, in Hungry Mother State Park.  We've spent the past two nights here, and it's been wonderful.  Yesterday the skies finally cleared, and it was sunny and cool.  We took a 5.7 mile hike around the lake, which wore Ranger out.  Because campground B was totally booked for the weekend, we had to move to Camp Burson for the second night, and it was---if anything---even nicer than the first night. 

On the early morning walk with Ranger, I saw indigo buntings and Baltimore orioles.

Lots of unpacking and cleaning ahead, but for now, I'm going to enjoy a second cup of coffee in this beautiful place.
