| An operating vintage carousel, made near Buffalo, New York in the 1920s, operates daily (weather permitting). It is one of the most popular destinations at the Museum for families. Check out the big kid on the horse! |

The rare 80-foot-diameter Round Barn – one of only two dozen built in the state – was constructed in East Passumpsic, Vermont in 1901. Round barns, designed for economy of labor, were first built by Massachusetts Shakers in 1826 and re-introduced by a national farm magazine in 1896. The Round Barn was moved to the Museum in 1985-86. The 9,000-pound upper segment of the silo was flown across the state by helicopter, while the remainder was dismantled and moved on flatbed trucks. The Round House held the display of snow machines. |

| One of the many beautiful homes in Vermont. I love the patriotism! It was near here that we found our first Vermont "home-grown" tomatoes in a Shaw's Grocery. At $4.00 a pound, we didn't buy any. Nor did we buy any bell peppers at $2.29 each. |

| After relocating Bubba and settling into our campsite at Branbury State Park, we decided to board a ferry and head over to visit Fort Ticonderoga. The Ticonderoga Ferry provides historic, scenic seven-minute daytime crossings on Lake Champlain between Shoreham, Vermont and Ticonderoga, New York. |

| You know how Jerry loves a ferry ride! Harley stayed behind to guard Bubba. |

| The Pavilion is the former hotel and Pell family estate on Lake Champlain below Fort Ticonderoga. Responsible for purchasing and preserving the Fort and its environs, generations of the Pell family enjoyed "King's Garden" where military troops and early settlers once cultivated food crops. |
