Vermont


Jamie and I took a little trip for a few days up to Killington, Vermont. Vermont is known for the best skiing in the east coast and Jamie wanted to check it out. I was finally able to use my timeshare for the first time and we got to stay in a one bedroom suite that had a living room and kitchen and a gas fireplace. It took us 5 hours to get there from New Jersey. For most of the ride we were traveling in upstate New York. There was an outdoor heated swimming pool that felt so nice to relax in until you got out of it into the cold air. We arrived there on Sunday, the day of the superbowl. Jamie and I had to go to the store and get a bunch of food and goodies so we could have our own little superbowl party. The next day, Jamie went snowboarding. I choose not to go cuz it wasn't worth the money to me when I don't really care to snowboard. I had decided to just go do some exploring on my own. It was fun driving around Vermont. There are so many trees and mountains. Definitely not like the mountains in Utah though. Vermont mountains are more rounded and not as tall. But there are so many more trees out there than in Utah. While I was out exploring, I was very surprise to find out just how close New Hampshire was to where I was and then I was even more surprised to find out that my cousin Shaunie and her family lived just right there in NH where I was going. So I stopped by and saw them for awhile while Jamie snowboarded. At night time there wasn't too much to do in Killington. All the shops closed before 8 o clock. All that was open was a bunch of bars. Then that night both Jamie and I weren't feeling too good. We just stayed inside and chilled. Neither of us wanted to leave the next day, cuz it felt like we had just got there. We got up early and left though. After we had been on our way for like 15 mins I realized I forgot my bathing suit and so we had to drive back. And by the time I was able to get back inside the room the maid had already been in there and had taken my bathing suit to the lost and found. That wasted about 20 mins of our time because of my own stupidity lol. We did have lots of fun though, except neither of us felt very good because of the colds we had. Oh, and Jamie did say that the snowboarding is still better in Utah!
