Day 15: Rochester NH to Milford, PA

A little better days' travel today; we did negotiate a couple of large towns but all in all, despite the sopping weather, we think 350 miles is OK. We really liked Route 9 across Vermont and also the part of New York we traversed the last 100 miles or so. Despite the storm, there's still plenty of color. We just crossed the border into Pennsylvania a few miles back and stopped for the night here in Milford, PA. It's a small town and not too remarkable. We're going further south and east tomorrow; planning to travel down through the Appalachians and get to the Great Smoky Moutains National Park in a day or two. Posting a couple of pictures; I've been busy driving and some of the narrow streets in the towns we passed through today made that difficult; however, I did get Caren's camera away from her long enough to download some pictures and I'll post a few.

 We have many pictures of steeples. I cannot tell which city they are from, in most cases.
 We stopped here and bought a little maple sugar and syrup from a family farm, whose 400 acres has about 4000 sugar maple trees and they've been in the sugar maple business since the late 1800's. Also they appear to be Scottish terrier fanciers, and we were in Marlboro county, NH and actually on Marlboro Road.

 Told you yesterday; here's the evidence!
