Snow in Connecticut and a visit to Vermont.

On the Farmington Canal cycle/walking track for a Sunday walk.

Half the driveway done and hoping the sun will help to melt the ice. Yeah right!

Driveway half done and pathway done. Now for more driveway!

Snow and ice covered tree in Tim and Barb's yard at minus 25C! Pretty cool.

In David and Barbara Carter's home in South Hero. They both designed it. Magnificent view East across Lake Champlain

Trying my best at x-country not having done it since 1997. Went a bit over 3 kms.

The Carters home from the lake with Barbara and friend at the end of our ski.

06.30 and the sun is almost up over Lake Champlain. So beautiful.

Those are our tracks through the wind driven snow over 60cm of ice.
Hole fishing in that shack on the ice.

The Carters home with beautiful sunshine and 0 degrees Celcius.

I had such an amazing time with the Carters. Three magic dinners, the theater, a visit to the Vermont Legislature in Montpelier and meeting a senator, representatives and the Governor. Then I was given the honour of addressing the Rotary meeting in Burlington on the history of apartheid. Seems like my knowledge still has a use.
