Traveling and Learning

I can't believe it, but today we found an old wooden covered bridge. The bridge is still in use. We drove over it and ate at the diner we found on the other side of the bridge. We had a great breakfast there! Then we went to a another small town over near the place we are staying.
At the small town called Millerton we found a person blowing glass. It's called Gilmar glass. We watched them blow glass and talked to them about the process. They were making glass pumpkins while they were blowing the glass.
We ordered a pumpkin and got to choose our color and watch the whole process. This picture is the glassblower working on our glass pumpkin.
We also found a place selling knitting
materials. She had some beautiful bamboo material. She was also having a sale! I bought so much of her bamboo material that she sold the bamboo at 50% off!!! What a deal!

We found a place with really great tea for sale. We will have to come back tomorrow with our son so he can pick his favorite.

We ate lunch at the diner in Millerton.

It clearly has been a fun vacation getting ready for the wedding tomorrow. We are certainly getting ready for the event tomorrow!
