Farmers Market
Burlington Mooring Field
We woke up to a beautiful day…the front moved in last night
and the temperature was 58 degrees this morning. Burlington is hosting the USA Triathlon
this weekend, which is a national championship. They began swimming at 7:30,
although we couldn’t see much from our mooring. We read they would be in the
water until 10:00, so we had a slow morning on the boat. Around 10:00 we
dinghied to shore and spent the morning at the Burlington Farmers Market. What
a great way to spend the morning and what an amazing array of vegetables, art,
cheeses, breads, wines, and meats they had. We sampled a lot of great items.
They also have a lot of booths that sell things to eat; making a lunch choice
was very hard. We also spent time wandering through the shops on Church Street,
which is a pedestrian mall with street entertainers, music and over 100 places
to shop and dine. It was a wonderful day to just relax and watch people.
Brad brought his fishing boat by this afternoon and took us
to see Shelburne Bay, where they keep their Monk. What a great afternoon to be
on the lake…and going fast was a real treat! We went back into town this
evening to check out a few local breweries and have dinner. We found some good
beer but our dinner choice was just average. Burlington is a beautiful town,
with all kinds of activities to offer.
