View from our hotel room

Which is actually more like a one bedroom apartment. Its a beautiful view. 
One we will never get in Florida. And it changes minute-by-minute. 
The clouds do amazing things. 
They kiss, they cover and they envelop and it never fails to amaze.

Another beautiful sight. It followed us all about town and it was difficult to take my eyes off it.

In or around places in Vermont

I adore old country churches that were used for anything and everything; worship, town halls, socials.. Trying to keep all the road signs out and wires. I never knew there were that many wires and road signs and how annoying they are.

And the clouds were rolling this day. 

And just being gorgeous and wild.

More clouds but I do love a good bridge. 

And store fronts - don't they just make you swoon. It was sad to see that many abandoned in the little town of Bethel (I think).

Couldn't help this - we were by the side of the road whilst map consulting and there was a little bit of water coming out of the ground. And this sign. What you don't see are all the danger signs about NOT drinking this water without boiling.

And clouds and bridges and mountains oh my....

And then as you come over the rise or around a turn - there are HUGE windmills.
 By the time I got my act together they were surrounding this farm.

Camping at Long Key State Park

What a well kept secret this place is and because its a state park - not that expensive. And what a primo spot we had. The end of our camper is bumped up to the water. 

I indulged in some hipstomatic fun. I like it better than instagram. And no wifi or TV. The phones still worked so there were a couple games of candy crush going on.Everything a camp needs - a table, a grill and some critter hiding in the bushes - and they also blocked us off from the other campers.
Love the privacy.

The path down to the water - and we arrived at sunset. There was a drop off to get to the water however, I didn't go there. There was a big rock at the bottom stealthily hidden by water and we all know how graceful I can be.

That is a raft/dinghy out there and it wasn't anchored that far off shore. We were able to relax and watch the hunter's moonrise. I didn't see anything eclipsing and took no photos because a. moons are tricky and I wanted to watch it and not behind a viewfinder. 
We were totally busy watching the clouds roll by and picking out shapes; a couple of dogs, a dragon and a dolphin/whale.
It wasn't all relaxing and candy crushing - 
we did bring our bikes this round and got a 2 mile ride in everyday.

This is also week 4 of my crossfitting adventure and I must say I'm totally addicted. I'm feeling the results and one day I can't wait to wake up and see the results. I feel great and I'm doing things I never thought I could or would do. Like running, lifting weights and squats. My knees are getting stronger everyday.

My goal is to squat down and get back up. I can do that now. 

My new goal is to squat down and stay there for awhile. Practicing.

I even did the warmups while camping. Who knew.
