Travel Tips

The kids and I spent the day in Dummerston, Vermont, outside of Brattleboro on my cousin's farm. They breed and use Suffolk Punch horses....really nice work horses....and work their farm with them. In the winter they give sleigh rides....we got one free! :)

Stella and Dora, mother and daughter. Stella is 25 years old and Dora is 21. :))

Mom, we don't care if we don't have snowpants, boots and mittens. We'll go sledding anytime, anywhere!! Even if there's a gazillion trees between us and the bottom of the hill!

My daughter could spend hours with a horse, just petting it, talking to it, watching it, caring for it. Her dream is to one day own a horse....and I'm sure she will!

If you're ever in Brattleboro or that area, look up Fair Winds Farm. They would love a visit and they are the gentlest, kindest people I know!
