1 Skyhawk N9767F, our plane this time. Not the youngest, but these planes are very sturdy and reliable. |
2 Of course and again, our trip brought us over NSLS-II, our workplace. |
3 Everything under control, although this old Garmin unit drove me crazy. Very finicky. |
4 We kept our health under control as well. |
5 Crossing the Sound to New Haven in Connecticut. |
6 Most trees are still green in Connecticut. |
7 Hartford, capital of Connecticut, in the distance. |
8 The foliage gets redder in Massachusetts. Cobble Mountain Reservoir in the back. |
9 Blandford, a village with a famous White Church. |
10 Ashmere Lake in the front, Mount Greylock ahead. |
11 Some light clouds. |
12 Veterans War Memorial on the top of Mount Greylock. |
13 Reaching Vermont and the Green Mountain National Forest. Not really densely populated. |
14 We landed in Rutland and got a car to explore the area. First stop: McGrath's Irish Pub for a nice Shepherd's Pie. |
15 Rustic and cosy, the bar. |
16 The colors of the foliage were magnificent. |
17 The rental car folks gave us a Jeep. A great car to explore the unpaved roads. |
18 The road went alongside Mendon Brook. |
19 Changing colors here as well. |
20 After the takeoff, another view on area around Rutland. Beautiful landscape and colors. |
21 Clearly Indian Summer in full. |
22 Vermont's foliage and the Green Mountains. |
23 On our way back we got closer to Hartford. |
