inspired by Vermont....
Hi everyone... hope you had a great weekend?
Ready for the Presidential debate tonight? Or sick of it all? Either way, there's excitement in the air here because it's being held in our neck-of-the-woods, in Boca Raton, just down the road from us. Hoping for some SNL-worthy moments tonight, LOL !!
I was so inspired by all the wonderful fall colors and decor that I recently saw in Vermont! So over the weekend, while at the grocery store, I saw these beautiful mums {impulse purchase} and couldn't resist bringing a little bit of autumn to our Florida foyer.
Over the weekend I was also getting my new iPhone set up (thanks for all your help with that, Sal!). We (finally) upgraded to the iPhone 5... we still had iPhone 3's so we were way behind, it was definitely time to upgrade! I am loving the new HD camera (which is what I took this photo with) and I am dictating this blog post using Siri (the iPhone voice assistant) into my iPhone, directly into my Blogger app... how cool is that?!

that's the ticket!
So Sal and I are back home from New England, back to reality, and trying to catch-up at home/work. Been sorting thru a stack of mail and found that these lovelies had arrived... tickets I ordered while we were away. Can't wait for these shows!

heading home...
Waiting for our flight at the airport in Bangor, Maine.... had a wonderful time... autumn in New England is special !! Will post details and pics here soon.
Time to return home to my beloved (warm) Florida and to my precious Buddy & Aruba --- I missed them SO much!

heading east ....
Tired tonight from a full day of leaf-peeping along Vermont's fab & foliage-famous Route 100... but I'm staying up to plan tomorrow's route (using GPS, but I still love old-fashioned paper maps + a highlighter!).
We're heading east thru New Hampshire to the coast of Maine to Acadia National Park. A long drive, but I'm so excited to visit another of our amazing national parks!
enjoying Vermont... to the core!
Sal and I are enjoying all things autumn here in Vermont. Yesterday, we picked apples at a rural orchard, surrounded by splendid autumn foliage and crisp, fresh air. We're taking 13 pounds of these beauties home!
I'm loving all the seasonal fall decor too!

living life to the FALLEST
Our first full day in Vermont today... some rain and fog, with a chill in the air, but lots of autumn splendor too!
The view from our room in a cozy B&B... and woke up to apricot-ginger scones this morning... delish!

tracking the autumn splendor
As of October 2, here's the status of the fall foliage colors in Vermont... can't wait to get my first glimpses there on Friday! Until then, we're finishing some business in Boston (including a visit to a huge foreign language bookstore in Harvard Square --- Heaven for Sal !!).
