- Day three continued, after the ice skating, with a game of Apple to Apples, and a host-led trip to a near-by waterfall. Still somewhat obsessed with exercising, and being limited in what I could accomplish in the icy Vermont woods, I took inspiration from hundredpushups.com, and managed to pound out 100 push-ups in 5 sets.
- Day four began with a delicious breakfast, if I do say so my self. Steve and Margi then took us on a whirl-wind tour through Montpelier, Burlington, and Colchester, with a distant view of Camel Back Mountain. They performed their nearly-ceremonial changing of the drivers in front of the state capital, but I was feeling somewhat nauseous and failed to snap a picture of the capital building. We got to see their business, and treated them to lunch at the Vermont Pub and Brewery in Burlington. The beer and the food were decent, but service was slow as molasses in a Vermont winter. After lunch, we did a little shoping, then ventured down to Lake Champlain, where the cold wind immediately turned us around toward our car. It was 40 degrees, but felt like 10. We finished the road-trip with a visit to the Ben and Jerry’s ice cream factory in Waterbury, VT. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to take pictures of the factory floor (not really a big suprise), and they weren’t making ice cream anyway due to the proximity of the holiday.
