The Green Mountains offer so many beautiful, quiet places to take in the views. This small farm was not too far outside of Stowe, Vermont on the way to the Von Trapp Lodge. The quintessential red barn and old tractor were framed perfectly by the passing clouds.

Vermont Chapels in Winter
With the 70+ degree weather we've had this week, it's hard to imagine just a week ago it was a cold New England winter day in the upper reaches of Vermont. With the long weekend, we ventured to Burlington to explore a new city. On the way, we stopped in the town of Stowe and the Von Trapp lodge nearby.
The stone chapel was built by Werner Von Trapp in the late 1940s after returning from the war. It's situated deep in the woods, on a hillside. We snowshoed up to the location and ventured through the forest after.
The more traditional church is Stowe Community Church, located in the heart of Stowe. It had just rained earlier and the sun was beginning to shine through. I spotted a puddle that provided a great reflection of the steeple.
