“Market Friday” ~ 🍁The VERMONT Country Store in Weston, my US adventures 😎 🇺🇸
Hi all 👋🏻
For my next post in our lovely #community this Friday for the #MarketFriday by @dswigle - Denise.
I will show you some highlights of my visit to a VERMONT country store in the USA 🇺🇸
‼️If you want to know more about #MarketFriday’s have a look at this post about it: “Pumpkin Tales for Market Friday” from @dswigle where you find also the rules what to post if you want to join us.
These 17 photographs are all taken with my new CANON R5 with 24-105mm lens 🥰😎🤓 on 28 September 2022.
I will follow the time stamps on them. So you can walk with me a little while 💃🏻💃🏻 and see the store and surroundings through my eyes…
It was extra special as the leaves started turning for it’s fall colours 🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂
Location of this #countrystore in Vermont you find on Google maps by the yellow star ⭐️:
Zooming in a bit:
Address of this Store is according to Google maps: “657 Main St, Weston, VT 05161, United States”
Their website can be found here: Vermont Country Store!
If you are curious to what store it is and what they sell and do. 🤓
Let’s start with our arrival on the parking lot and what we saw. 😉
Next to us we see a little garden with a path that leads through flowers and plants to a trail that you can follow into the forest 🌳
Of course I had to capture the last flowering #flowers here… #alwaysaflower for @dswigle 🥰
Looking around us in the parking lot, we see red leaves 🍁 everywhere… 🥰
Such a beauty, don’t you think?
We walk towards the back entrance of the Vermont Country Store and see there is a little white tent put up for shelter. As it has been raining. You can buy some grilled food on the left and eat it under the tent sitting on the benches.
The entrance in the back.
Looking to the left we see a bit further away this hide out, were you can sit and see an old photo of the store many moons ago. 😁
We also see this amazing classic truck and many pumpkins 🎃 stalled out for the autumn festivities and seasonal changes 🍁🎃
But… let’s hold you no longer in suspense.
Let’s step inside this rather large store.
They have so much… from accessories to toys to food to clothes to office supplies to…. A lot hehehe 🤭
Also some old tools are on display, there are not being sold though.
I see nice cheeses in the fridge and these colourful packages caught my eye.
Looking further in the store and up, we see the construction beams. How wonderful that is.
Also old metal signs can be found as accessories in the store, not for sale. 🤓 I love old metal signs 🥰
The cutest corner in this store is around the fireplace.
Don’t you think this is so inviting to sit down and read a book 📖 or play a game 🥰😎
I bought this fridge magnet:
Price was $4,99
(added the back side with price to the photo)
Walking outside, I capture the front of the store and a motorcycle passes by… 😎 vroooommm
Opposite this country store we see a Christmas shop… all year round Christmas decorations are being sold. 🤶🏻🎅🏻🎄
The sky is turning… dark clouds are forming. Let’s head back to the car.
I pick up a leaf 🍁 just before we travel further.
Yes, a new season is here…
And with this last photo I want to say: that’s all for today’s #MarketFriday post. Hope you enjoyed coming along with me on my latest travels to the state of Vermont. 🇺🇸 I will share more US adventures very soon, stay tuned! 😎😊
Until the next one! 👋🏻😎 are you joining me again soon? 😉💃🏻
Thank you for looking and reading 😊 🙏🏻
Any questions or comments, let me know. Always happy to help.
Have a great #MarketFriday all 😎

Wow we are like soulmates this week. Both posting Vermont country stores. Mine lower case, yours The Vermont Country Store 😁 Country general stores are still a tradition in lots of small towns in Vermont. The one you visited is one the best 👍 in fact it drives a pretty big internet business haha You were about 2 hours from where I live. The brave little state as President Calvin Coolidge famously labeled Vermont is bigger than you think. You were in the Connecticut River valley which is the eastern border of the state. I live in the Champlain Valley which is the western border of the state.
"If the spirit of liberty should vanish in other parts of the Union, and support of our institutions should languish, it could all be replenished from the generous store held by the people of this brave little state of Vermont." - Calvin Coolidge
We are like soulmates this week @steven-patrick 😁👋🏻 Soooo cool.
I heard about the country stores and thought we just needed to visit a few when we are in Vermont.
I think this was the highest we drove up into Vermont. We did visit Manchester too (for a sculpture park) on the left side where we drove up to, via New York State coming from Massachusetts. We did do a lot in 2 weeks. We sure will be visiting Vermont again. As we loved what we saw.
It was sooo biggg, the store. Never saw anything like it.
The amount of other state license plates we saw in the parking lot was just amazing. I think we counted about 9 different states that day. 🤓 so it does attract a lot of people from out of town.
That wasn’t far indeed from you away. Next time we come by and say hi and have a coffee. 😊
It looks small but Vermont does have a lot.
Especially the nature. We just love it. I think we spent the most time in nature, walking trails and visiting small hill villages. 😁
That’s wonderful… thanks for sharing 🥰
Have a wonderful Friday further!
You counted 9 license plates in the parking lot.
You are forgetting that Vermont leaves are peaking in color. People are probably visiting them, not the Country Stores. :) Ok... they like the stores, but, they love the leaves. There are a lot of country stores up there! I do love them1
Just saying! xo
Believe it or not, there were hardly tourists those 2 weeks we were out and about. Empty trails, mountaintops restaurants and villages. So to see so many different licence plates at those stores was cool.
I understand they are probably there for the peaking and just on a stop on there journey. Maybe we were a tad to early.
Vermont definitely turned before Massachusetts. We saw the most red up there, but it only started… 😉😎
Thanks Denise xo
Looks like a fun store.
Cheese always catches people's eye wherever they go lol
Nice magnet choice
It was indeed a fun store we spend some time in.
Funny thing that is, but yes… cheese always catches peoples eyes hahaha 🤣
Thank you, right up with my other magnets collection 😎😉
Have a great day @leaky20
It does look like a lovely store - and what a lovely time of year there, with all the trees turning !
!LOLZ
It’s a great store to be in a few hours. So much to see. And eat delicious food too.
We chose wisely when we went and the temperature was so refreshing, a relief from the heat in Spain. Loved the crisp cool air. And seeing the leaves turn was just magical… the higher up we came more reds showed up. 🍁🍁🍁
Thanks @hoosie

When I took these shots we were only a team since 2 days 🤓 so happy to hear that!
I had to make the files a lot smaller to share here, so there is a bit of loss.
We will have lots of fun 📸 exploring going forward 🥰😉

It was wonderful to see this store on our US visit. The things you could get there.
The fireplace was just special. I could spend some time there. Maybe they should put a lazy cozy chair there hehehe 🤭
Have a great Saturday 👋🏻 Thanks for visiting my post.
Thanks for sharing it Jackie, and a cosy rocking chair would be perfect there, and fit nice with the time era as well.

Beautiful!
And, looks like what I grew up in - Nothing like Rural America! 😍🌎😍
And the Images are as crisp as "Chips"!
@littlebee4 Looks like the Camera was a "Great Purchase"! 👍🏼📷📸📷👍🏼
Have an Amazing Positive Energy Weekend!
🙋🏻♀️✨🌄✨🙋🏻♀️
Thank you so much @lesmann 😁😎
That’s great to hear, you recognise it from where you grew up in.
Will share much more from our adventures soon.
I’m so happy with the new gear. The more I look through the photos the happier I get hahaha
Planning to go out tomorrow with it. Today was chores… and grocery shopping. Sigh… not funny.
Thank you, you too have a wonderful positive energy weekend!
Take care and have fun my friend.
👋🏻😁☀️🤞🏻🧘🏻♀️ Hope you are having some nice meditation time.
Your Very Welcome - "Always" @littlebee4 !
And thank You as Well, it was nice to see some photos of what it "is/was/will be", living in the "beach" after awhile you do tend to forget....⛱️🏜️🏞️🍁🤔
I can fully believe You! The photos are Very Crisp, just wonderful! Every part, Great Job!
I had my "Meditations Day", as Always - but something funny did happen... I have (finally) made it "clear" I am not going anywheres on Saturday, and my roommates son will "not" drive her to get cigarettes....
"She Drove Herself"! 😲🤔😉
So.. yeah... Clear to see..👁️👁️
Good Your getting out tomorrow and hope it is not too hot in You, I am doing the same.🤔
This weekend is the Jazz Fest here. I normally go every year but, this year my friends are "not" playing (first in 15+ years) and I don't know why - but it could influence my decision...
Well.. Actually I did have a "Amazing" Meditations Day! 🙌🏼😅🙌🏼
Another guy I followed, and mainly because he did the same things as Carlos Castaneda - but in a far more technical way is Robert Monroe. For some "reason" I got up and watched "out of the blue" a video from him on YouTube, which I had never done before... Search for him on YouTube I mean, only read his books... Anyways...
"I learned Something"! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
And he didn't say it.. But, I did not have the "tools" he suggested, so I decided to synthesize them - "It Worked"!
It was a sort of "brain wave" experiment with sound (hertz). I didn't go too far into this, I will do this over the next time - but I got a positive reaction! Pretty happy about that, and from in the middle of Meditating...
Thank You and You take care as well!
Be Safe and Enjoy the Positivity and be Happy!
Stay Blessed and Enjoy the Cappuccino's!
👍🏼✨👋🏼☕🌅🙏🏼🌅☕👋🏼✨👍🏼
I so understand living in the beach you forget how much fun inland and up the mountains it can be. I lived about 4 times high up the mountains and inland in Spain. Different living for sure. I many ways.
Thank you so much, very much appreciated!
Wow, a wonder she drove herself… she must have been desperate. Hehehe 🤭 I shouldn’t giggle.
So we changed our plans 3 times for yesterday where to go. First we wanted to drive up, inland to Jerez. But turned out it would be 32 degrees Celsius up there. So hell nooooo we were going that way, as here it would be only 25 degrees… much nicer although still hot. So than… we though let’s walk a trail. But it started raining (for 4 hours) and in the midday it would be hot 26 degrees Celsius again. So we scrapped that plan too. We ended up going to a butterfly garden where I could play around with the camera. Haven’t transferred the photos yet, but will do later and share soon. 😁😎🦋🐛
Maybe you should still go. Get out of the routine. It’s good. Even though your friends are not playing.
👋🏻😊😎
Oowww wow that’s pretty cool, you found him, did a little and you already experienced a reaction. Sounds interesting. Sound can do a lot actually.
You are so welcome, thank you too.
Have the most amazing new week my friend 👋🏻😊
Let the positive energy flow and let it be magical @lesmann 😎🤞🏻🍀✨
Take care and stay safe. Happy Monday!
Yeah, it can make You forget you ever saw a mountain.. Even worse, get the fear of Mountains and Tall Trees.. 🌲😲🌲
And I lived in the "Eisberg" in Esslingen..🤔
We'll see how things go in the next time....😉
Absolutely! Really Clear and Really Crisp - no "Fuzziness" at all! Your Very Welcome - I just loved taking a look at where I am going! 👍🏼🏞️🤓🏞️👍🏼
You know... I was shocked myself! Really! As for the most part I had thought her and driving was done.. But...
Good to see.. he he he...👀
Well I get You there! Hard thing to "March into the Fire", I know! 😉 So I don't blame You a bit!
A Butterfly Garden is actually a Good Place to learn about a Camera - (should be) lots of color and activity! Maybe even some floating by shots! 🤓
Well I actually did not go, but I did go to a Park instead (*sublime Sunday post). Funny, I was thinking of the "Corpus Christi Botanical Garden" - but changed my mind and decided on the park instead. I figured first, the musicians I support are not playing this year (I may know why..), and second is the crowd thing, as this is a "Free Concert", annually - large crowd in a small space, so I figured the park is better for me..😉
Yes sound can do a lot! Although I am no where as precise as someone who is blind, I have kind of got the seeing with sound thing.. But... I figured out something else (may be related, on the nervous system level)...
Well Carlos Castaneda (first I heard of this, actually and "he" may also be Jose Silva - man credited to discovering this, as he had a few names also Miguel Ruiz..🤔) one day has don Juan talking at a certain speed in one ear. His friend don Genaro was talking something else a different speed and pitch in the other ear...
Now this is the same as Robert Monroe and his "Hemisynch" where they use headphones and sound. He in the video takes about how it is more the difference in what each ear perceived than what....
Well.. I decided to use my abilities as a Human and (mentally) synthesize this event in my head, oh yeah helps if you "stop talking to yourself as well" but... It Works! 🙌🏼😁🙌🏼
You can climb right out of here - literally!
Of course a dear emotion will pull you right back, and I haven't gone too far with this as the shock that it worked already had me thinking.. So I am in the experimental phase.. I will keep You posted...🤓
That is so Nice of You @littlebee4 and Thank You so much as well!
The week is doing better than last already, and wishing the same for You!
Be Blessed, Stay Safe and Be 🐝Happy!
🙋🏻♀️✨🙏🏼✨🙋🏻♀️
Let's Do This!
🙌🏼✨🌅🙌🏼🌅✨🙌🏼
That fair for mountains and trees is so not necessary… it will be fine. 😊
You lived there before, even in Germany amongst 🏔
Thanks, will share more soon 🤓
I can imagine you were shocked seeing her drive hehehe
Exactly like that, not going where it is warmer now hahaha 🤣 the butterfly garden was fun. So many butterflies, caterpillars and some flowers. Not many though. Flowers I mean. Took 360 photos.
Ok, I see why you decided to go to the park. Large crowds in small spaces we do avoid still. Better be somewhere in nature.
Wow that’s so cool… I wish I could do something with sound. I have tinnitus since 4 years… an extremely high pitch in both ears what drives me bonkers at times. It is never quite anymore in my head. Never… not even when I rest or sleep. Sometimes it keeps me up.
I need a counter part sound to it… but will it stop the little hairs from trembling. Nope I guess not.
Sometimes it’s so loud I can’t follow conversations.
Hope you can experiment a bit and find what works best for you.
Thank you so much @lesmann 😊👋🏻 Have a wonderful Tuesday filled with positive energy.
Be safe and bee 🐝 happy!
Make it magical. Good to hear the week is better.
You are welcome.
Let’s do this ☀️🤞🏻🍀✨🌈
You know, I was outside and it hit me.. Besides the dead of tall things around me..🤔
I think it's the sound of the wind! Here you might hear it a little... There I know it "roars"! That, I think I am not used to, and is scary... Especially in Autumn! 🌬️🍂🍁🍂🌬️
Actually it was scary in Germany also.. Just the feel of things was so different it was not in the forefront so to speak..
Yes I was Very Impressed with the photos You shared! Absolutely Magazine Quality, and good scenes!
You are doing well with the new one, and setting the bar a little higher here! 😉🤓😎
Yes it was shocking! 🤨😲🤨 I will now see about the next trip... Since the 600lber is unemployed again, there should be no issues...😉🤓😏
I can imagine going out of the heat! We had a cold front blow through and right now (believe it or not) it's 15° Celsius! And will get a little cooler as the night goes on.. It's kind of a freak thing... Friday will be back to 33°...
But, 360 shots of the nature, I know they are beautiful, going by what I have already seen! 🤓📷📸📷🤓
Can't Wait! 👍🏼📸👍🏼
Yeah, I was really not in a large noisy crowd mood.. OK, if I was going to see people I know, and can hang out a little - fine.. Go alone and walk around.. naa... I was not really feeling good with that.
Funny.. I have the ear ringing thing too.. 😏 And yeah, it never goes away... However I noticed (and this set me in this path) that sometimes they oscillate. And I can hear the cycling (difference from ear to ear - brain side to side?).
So then I discovered that you "can" influence the pitch - side to side, once you separate them. This is "Very Magical", indeed...,😉🤓😎
I am still experimenting, but all is very Positive so far!
You @littlebee4 have a Very Happy and Positive
Mid-Week!
Stay Safe and Blessed - Always!
👍🏼🙏🏼✨🙏🏼👍🏼
Make It Magical - Let's Do This!
🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼⚡🏞️⚡🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️
Ok, understand. The wind is different. We lived for a bit in Tarifa. The wind there is relentless… capital of windsurfing hehehe so it just had to be windy lol. I can relate. Sometimes the wind around you can be just tooooo much.
Aawww thanks a lot, posted today my second post with the new camera photos… and a forest trail in Massachusetts. So have a look and enjoy, hope some memories will pop up.
Hahaha yep… let’s see what happens.
Aawww that sounds crazy, going from that heat all the way down and up again. Here it’s grey today and 23 degrees Celsius. 😊 so much cooler.
The park option was so much better. 😎☀️
Really… that’s interesting to hear you can do that. I haven’t even looked into it more as was too busy the last years doing so much and moving around etc.
funny you have it too. Another thing… 🤓
Thank you so much @lesmann have a wonderful Wednesday enjoy it and make it count.
Stay positive and safe. Bee 🐝 happy.
Happy positive energy day! 👋🏻☀️🤞🏻✨🤞🏻✨☀️
Oh... Here it is "Plenty Windy"! 🌬️🏄🌬️
Lots of kite surfing here and a few schools..
But...
There is "no trees" for the wind to blow through... Like in other places the wind you hear us from it going through branches, might even hear a tree creaking from bending.. Not here. If you hear wind it is just that, air blowing around.. But no branches sounds or any of that...
To me (after being here) that stuff all sounds like it's from a Halloween movie! 😎😅😂
I will check later, or in the morning... Having intermittent "I -Net" issues on the island tonight, for some reason. It took an hour and forty -five minutes to upload my post..🤔 The Fatter one was complaining... And he says No Bills! 😅😆😅
The younger generation! They got it made!
Well You won't believe this, and maybe you do.. But they tried again! 😲 First I got "set-up". It was 8:00 early, so I thought I should wash the truck quick... Then I was told the fatter one was going to take a shower. The other one had a Doctor's appointment and they were going together...
After awhile I look and see she is getting ready, he's laying in the couch... So I hear, oh I will drive myself - he looks so comfortable there.... Then even came a "while I was out I forgot to get cigarettes"... I did not offer to drive at all and did not! 🤓 YAY for me! But they tried the whole "guilt shame" act...
Exactly the same here, gray and much cooler, tomorrow it is marching right back up there!
Might be the same as well where You are, we'll see!
Well I am sure, and also sure the shots are Awesome as well! 📷📸📷 It's nice when You are at a place (one area) where lots is going on. 📸🤓📸
Yeah the ear thing...
It is kinda new (6 years).. And can be annoying.. Mostly because of the oscillation, more than the noise itself.. I think that was the clue.. But yeah, most of the time (it's doing it anyways) I can separate them - ear to ear I mean...
I would give it a try sometime, in a peaceful environment!
😉😏😁
And yes, another similarity! I wonder at this point if some things are not "par for the course", "That" would be very interesting! 🤓
You are so Welcome and Thank "You" as well @littlebee4 !
You as well, have a Magnificent Positive Energy Thursday!
Stay Blessed and Safe,
Let's Do This!
🙋🏻♀️✨🏞️✨🙋🏻♀️
Aawww I can imagine… lived a year in Malta. It’s like that. No trees or any nature left and the wind is just wind, no sounds further. Strange thing.
No worries, when it is possible.
Hehehe 🤭 the younger generations and their internet. They can’t do without.
That’s a long time for it to upload your post. Wow.
Hope it is sorted soon and no more issues.
Hahaha they try, and just stinging with their words to make you feel guilty. Good she went. Just stupid he is so lazy… 😳
Good to hear you didn’t!
No sun out but brighter than yesterday. They do predict some rain… we will see. Temperature is around 24 degrees Celsius at the moment.
Yes, it is nice to be somewhere where I can take in all the details… or photograph them ☺️
Thanks a lot.
Not sure if I can… it’s so loud all the time. A very high pitch / ringing I don’t hear a difference in each ear.
Will do one day when I’m relaxed and not thinking to much.
It could well be… who knows. Maybe it reacts to the energy we feel? 🧐🤔🤓
Thank you so much @lesmann 👋🏻😊 have a wonderful positive energy Thursday ☀️🤞🏻✨
Let’s make it count and magical.
Stay safe and be blessed.
Happy days… 👋🏻☀️✨🤞🏻✨🤞🏻✨🤞🏻🌸🌸🐝 bee happy…
Yeah it's a funny thing, that no one would think about.. The Wind is totally different blowing through "nothing" or blowing through branches and things. It's a dead nothing..😕
I checked Your Post! I don't know what to say! It's a "every photo is as nice as the next"! Awesome Shots! I really like the "brook and falls" shots, But "ALL" were Absolutely Amazing!
Very Good Choice and Outstanding Photographer!
👋🏼✨👍🏼📷👍🏼✨👋🏼
Yeah, it didn't work for them... 😉 She ended up driving herself again today as well... I think she's getting the hint - "if you can't ask your 32 year old son, why are you asking me"?
😉😁😎
But today she didn't even try besides a "freak incident" happened...🤔
At 3:10 a.m. I woke up.. The whole room was spinning, like when your drunk! And fast! After a few moments I got that slowed down and went out side and...
Threw Up! 🤢🤮🤢
I went in and slept till around 7.. Got up and threw up some more... 🤢🤮🤢
I figured, I am not sick (don't feel sick in any way...), So let me wash the Exploder (been putting it off for awhile) real quick...
Vomit city again! I have up and went in my room and laid down till a few hours ago...
Odd.. You were say that You we're experiencing something like this a day ago.... Odd, came from "nowhere", and not sick (well.. really dizzy)..
Yes I do miss the European Daily Drizzle! Also other parts like "car tires" on wet pavement, basically sounds of activity, life itself - and the drizzle in the air kind of echoes the sounds, also "stone buildings"...
24° Celsius is "Perfect"! That's what I want! Maybe 20-24 nights and 24-26 days, Year round!
Of course there is the "other side "...
I have learned warm weather attracts flys... He he he!
😏😅🤣
Yes - no matter what, any Nature experience is so valuable! It is one of My biggest things just to get in it! And taking Photos is just plain Cool! 👋🏼📷👋🏼
Gotcha there! 👂🏻 Like right now I am not doing anything (mentally) to Dampen the sound or anything - "call it normal cruise control" and it is a bit loud! So I get it!
When you have some time, it still may be worth a try!😉😁😎
And "Yes" I am 100% sure it is a reaction to the energy because it actually does "oscillate" and change pitch. If it was a static thing, I think it would stay "flat", one time All the time - for me this is not the case.
Thank You Too @littlebee4 !
You have a Positive Energy Thursday, And ...
Let's Make It Magical!
🙋🏻♀️✨🍀🌄🍀✨🙋🏻♀️
Enjoy the Cappuccino's My Friend!
👍🏼☕✨☕👍🏼
Indeed a funny thing.
I think I like sounds, creaking of things. Trees old buildings etc.
Aawww you are kind @lesmann thank you so much, that’s nice of you to say 😊😎
I think I bought the right camera for me 🤩🤓📸
Really she went again… she must get it. As he is around she can’t ask you now and he is too lazy to get up. 😳 so she has no choice left than to go her self.
Omg that’s freaky to hear. Yep… I experienced something like this. I still haven’t figured out why I got sick. All dizzy… feeling like I had to throw up during sleeping. 😳 luckily I didn’t as it makes me even worse. I wasn’t sick sick… just dizzy and the feeling of throwing up.
This is weird you got kinda the same during sleeping. Something could be changing… energy… weather… something?
Yep, all of that, we are not experiencing where we are now.
Hahaha it will never be perfect temperatures wise or weather. There will always be something.
Indeed nature is so great in many ways many ways. To go out and about, healthy, photography, connection with nature etc etc.
For me it is constant no oscillation… or the frequency is to high that I can’t hear it does that. Hhhmmm 🤔
You are welcome @lesmann have an amazing Friday! Hope you feel better or at least not dizzy anymore or throwing up. So sending some healing thought right at you. 🤞🏻✨🍀 take care…
Be safe and bee 🐝 happy my friend.
Almost weekend 😊😎🍀🤞🏻💃🏻🐝
Actually I like sounds myself, that's the thing I guess..🤔 Other than TV Violence (they are BIG on that and turn it up LOUD), and a few birds here is nothing.. No trees blowing, houses creaking, car horns blowing, nothing - oh occasional dogs barking - one here. Noises if civilization have become foreign to me. I am not against and they do make things interesting, just it will be weird at first. People will look at me funny!😂
Yes You Did! 👍🏼📷👍🏼 Excellent choice, judging by the photos! It seems that was the one made for You @littlebee4 !
Congrats and no need to Thank! 👋🏼😁📷😁👋🏼
Yes, and this "truth" is showing itself more and more. And this "guy" doesn't get anything at all! Oh well, as I say "that's the horse she bet on"....
Yeah, now to the "meat"... You know, this is really weird. I also was not "sick" in any way... But "DIZZY"! And throwing up all over! And I think that I know why... Maybe You do as well, or feel it... Well I am still having a "milder" case of being dizzy. Not like yesterday, but still there...
My thoughts are.. "There was a shift"... I can feel it and if I look at things, it all looks a tiny bit different, things are more "edgy and bright", so to speak... Maybe You are having the same...🤔🤓😎
In any event, it has also even had an effect on some mental things - clarity...
Yeah, this is like all You ever wanted, and every detail you forgot was turned into something else...
A Virtual "Nowhere Land"... Full of Nobody's - Unaware...
Yes we need exposure to Nature, every chance! The Camera is a Very good vehicle to get one there! And I mean even if someone is taking crappy photos, to get out and move - or to just experience Nature is honestly priceless!
That may be possible, I don't know. I do think it's like a carrier signal of sorts... Like the one that keeps the cell phones running whether your using it or not...
Well still a little dizzy today, but not throwing up! Yay! 🙌🏼
Do to the sudden clarity if mind, it may have it's place - one process leading to another.. he he he! 😉🤓😎
Thank You so Much and Wishing You a Magnificent,
Positive Energy Weekend! 🙋🏻♀️✨🌄✨🙋🏻♀️
Stay Blessed and Safe!
🙏🏼✨🍀🏞️🍀✨🙏🏼
Wow, I do understand what you mean. It will be a whole new experience, something you have not had the last years after your move. It will be ok.
It is strange to imagine the sounds… or the lack of sounds around you. Here also… the only sounds I hear is a wining dog during day time next door when the owners are working… all day.
And the back street. There is a security booth… and a bump in the road where the cars need to slow down and than go bump bump over. Day… and the worse part… night time. Our bedroom is right next to it almost. But… hey… we won’t stay here long anyway. So we can live with it for a while.
No other noises either. As the palm trees… are far away and the few in the garden… hhhmmm don’t really make sounds so far. And we are 30 minute walk from the sea/beach so we don’t hear that either. And 80% of the houses around us are now empty… as the owners went back to the north. To their heated houses for the winter hahaha 🤣
Still will do; thank you so much @lesmann 👋🏻😊
Sad she does… she will find out in time, when it’s toooooo late 😳
Hhhmmm interesting to hear. Sorry haven’t picked up on that, as literally I have been soooo busy today. I’m sitting down now for the first time and go… rest… will have a look around tomorrow what I see.
This morning I was dizzy again, but not after getting up. It was around 11h suddenly again. But no feeling of I had to throw up… luckily. It looks like something is changing. Big time… and we are reacting to it rather extremely. That’s interesting… 🤔 have you heard of anybody else that experienced this?
Exactly like that.
Indeed… you are right. Getting out, moving, surrounding yourself with nature is the best part. The photos are like a bonus. A memory you captured. Being more healthy is so much better.
Good to hear, hope you are all better today/ this evening 🤞🏻😊 great you can give it a place.
I had not been able to do so. No time really to “think” or “see” today.
You are welcome my friend. Have a wonderful evening.
Take care and stay blessed 👋🏻😊✨🤞🏻☀️🌺🤞🏻✨
Positive energy weekend!
Yeah @littlebee4 you know what I mean! Just a total lack of normal sounds! It will be like a deaf person suddenly getting hearing!
Bump in the road! That sounds crazy! Does anyone try to make it a jump ramp? (*They would here)...
Absolutely! I feel You have found a perfect match! The photos I have seen are really Very, Very Good! 👍🏼👋🏼📷👋🏼👍🏼
As she went to the car rental agency with him to drive his car back... I think she "did" get it today - from someone else! And to put the "cherry on top" she was trying to explain things "away,".. (this guy has paid "0" towards mostly anything for a year and a half+) she says something about the $400, bla, bla... I told her walking away.. It's still $400 dollars...
So all Very Interesting... I like that someone else let them know they will not let him in their car, not even for $400!
The dizzy thing.. It's not gone.. Not as severe as Thursday but still there, especially if I move My head fast...🤔
Other people...
My sister sent me a text about this energy all around she can feel...
And My roommate claimed to be sick on the same day as me, but I saw no evidence of it...
However, my personal thought is it is an Energy Shift of sorts - Global of course and pretty strong. I also think a whole lot of things are getting ready to change.
My eyesight is still "changed" and lights and things are all "much sharper".. Almost like I have been asleep the whole time....😕😐😲
Yeah like a Star Trek episode...
Funny Stuff....
Yeah, we "need" to absorb Nature! Whenever possible! The photos are just a plus and a storage of memories - which as You said is also good! It is a Perfect Thing, as it does two things for you whenever you do one thing for it! 🤓
I am going to do my normal "heavy thinking" this Eve... So I am going to think on this and all things really.. Making sense of the shift - I believe will be a good one!
Take Care and Be Positive!
Magical Weekend I am Wishing You!
🙏🏼🙋🏻♀️🐝✨🍀⚡🏞️⚡🍀✨🐝🙋🏻♀️🙏🏼
Yep, I understand the sound thing…. I got some crickets now in the front… and they have been chirping all day. Hehehe it covered everything else.
The bump is a large speed bump. Like those you really need to slow down for, as after it is a pole that needs to open so you can get out of this area. So it’s annoying. The pole that opens and closes (forgot the English word lol) stops people from making it into a ramp. And a guard is always next to it…
Thanks a lot 😎 much appreciated!
Haven’t had time this weekend to go out and about with my camera… hope coming week.
It was I think a good lesson for them. As they needed to hear some reality… but still not sure if they really got it… why they did that. 🤓
Strange that it seems to linger around… for me too. I’m not sick but I feel something is off. Definitely!
Let’s see what will bring us, comes in the next days. Interesting your sister said that about the energy we feel for so long now. It’s still there…
Hhhmmm. Very interesting 🤔 yes, something changed big time. Hope it just pushes through now… and shows what it wants.
Cool you see those things, like the other time. More enhanced.
I don’t but… I haven’t been able to sit and watch. Today was too busy also.
Exactly like that @lesmann 😃
That’s good, hope it will give you some insights 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻😉✨🧩😎😊
Curious about your finds…
Thanks a lot, for you too. Take care and make this new week magical!
Have a wonderful positive energy Sunday. 👋🏻🤞🏻☀️🧩✨🐝🤞🏻☀️🧩✨
Bee 🐝 happy.
Yes sounds! Crickets , not many of those here.. But plenty of other bugs to make up for them! 😅
Your "Speed Bump" sounds like one of the entry gates to a "Kasern" in Germany... I once lived relatively close to one - Yep can be very annoying during high traffic hours! 😐
I know what you mean there! I also have found myself "running out of time" lately.. I also hope to get in some photos this week as well, though... We have a Tropical Storm hitting early tomorrow I guess.. So not any chance for a good day or so.. "Unless the Storm gets Exciting"! 😅🤣😅
Imagine.. Your a person and you have "trashed" your own car out so bad that you want to rent another so no one sees your "shit pile"... Imagine another sees this and figures it out! 😂
But no they don't get it....
Today the one that's here tried to "Double Down"...
A long time ago (they all forgot 😅🤣😅) she had asked me to photograph her nieces wedding.. Afterwards.. She sent me an email that they were crap and she had to hire another photographer and reduce her wedding - thanks to me! 😲
So "today" she volunteered me (???) to one of her friends to do the same for her daughter... I told her "NO"!
So I remind her "why" and I had told her to not even ask again...
She sends her niece a text.. She says it never happened and she is Very Happy with the photos I took!?!?!
Now honestly I know it did. Imagine that?!?
Yes it is still around.. It makes the whole world just that little bit more "Vibrant" - only description I can give it.. It may be the new normal...🤔😐🤓
My sister.... Funny huh? Now "she" is telling me (or trying to) that since she feels it (now) she is somehow special...
Little bit of the "fast - slow disco" if you ask me.. And in her case, because of how she is...
She doesn't have to feel anything at all... Just know it's around and use it as a talking point...😐
Yes.. and the one I mean is where this guy made this whole planet of robots who thought they were real, but they weren't...😲
Yes I have given it some thought.. I don't have all thoughts compiled yet.. But I am getting close!
No reason to thank @littlebee4 - Thanks to You as well!
This is the "PUSH WEEK"!
Let's Make It Magical, all week long!
Stay Blessed and Safe!
🙌🏼🙏🏼✨🍀🌄⚡🌄🍀✨🙏🏼🙌🏼
Think I meant cicadas but they are similar… make all a loud sound. Yep, I can imagine all the other bugs.
But I know New England has it’s share too.
Yep… I know the one you mean. Hahaha it is annoying. Even with windows closed I hear it. Lol
Oh wow. Do be safe with the storm, you don’t want it to be to exciting. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
But yes, times seems to be very fast and to little in a day. I have so much to do… will manage. All will be fine 😉😎🤓
Omg that really happened. Good you said NO. Stay away from drama. Crazy she is trying to volunteer you.
Of course, if she caught up on it, even if she wouldn’t feel it. It will be her talking point for a while. Like they say. “Fake it until you make it” kind of a thing.
Good you are figuring things out @lesmann 🤓😉
Keep going.
Thank you so much, much appreciated!
Have a wonderful Monday, make it magical.
Have a positive energy day and enjoy it.
Bee 🐝 happy 🤞🏻🧩✨🐝
Take care and stay safe my friend 👋🏻☀️😎
He he he!
This is a Cicada breeding ground!
And yeah, they can be "loud" especially when 2 or 3 get together! 😲
Actually I think "variety wise" there may be more bugs in New England...Maybe even number wise... Up there it is "moist"... Here too but... I think most of them can't take the sand and summer heat.. now the ones that can grow HUGE! A Cicada here is almost as big as a hummingbird... Cockroaches as big as mice! But I do think if you stick a shovel in the ground up there and here, you will have more "life" there not here...
Even worse is when it is like midnight to 3/4 in the morning and they go over and the car headlights shine around in the house.. (I lived through that in Nellingen).
Thank You @littlebee4 ! I will! Actually the Storm they said yesterday got "sheared" apart on the Sierra Madres... But now "freakishly" two more are headed here from where the first one broke up. The news said it would hit around 2 in the morning..🤔🤷🏼♀️😕 Thank You and I will be careful! 👍🏼🙏🏼👍🏼
Yeah.. bad deal! I think it is a sign of knowing your losing grip!
Just try anything! And "NO"! They might get me to do crap for them, sometimes... But "renting me out to friends and family is a NO"!😠😤😠
Fake it till you make it! Sounds like her! Cancer all the way! But I am beginning to have a few insights on this... But I think she would tell anyone anything, just to get their "response"... And that I do believe!
Thank You! Yes it is (has been) a bit of a battle. I have let people around me get "comfortable" with treating me like trash, so backtracking that is a bit of a job, but... Has to be done!
And Thank You @littlebee4 "Always"!
Have a Marvelous Magnificent Tuesday!
Make it Magical and Own The Day!
🙌🏼✨🌄⚡🌞⚡🌄✨🙌🏼
Think they are all here now hahaha I had them in the front and back of the house last evening.
Not funny… 🤣 maybe a hot climate thing.
Yes, I thought so too. More variety. As it is wetter… colder too.
We will see.
Luckily nothing too huge down here. They do exist but not that big.
Oh that s not good… hope they break up too. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Crossing fingers all went well.
Good you get some insights on your sister.
Better knowing than not noticing.
I can imagine, you can do it @lesmann it will make you stronger and be aware this time.
Thank you so much👋🏻😊
Have a magical day! Enjoy it fully…
Take care and be safe 🤞🏻🍀✨☀️🐝😊
Yeah they love lights!
😁🤓🤣
It can pull them out from a long ways away!
Your lucky! I think you have to go to the Amazon to find larger insects than here! Your lucky they don't get that large there.
Actually those two hit last night, exactly when the said, 02:00 on the button. It was pretty wild for about an hour and then it was over! Thank You @littlebee4 so much for the Well Wishes! Much Appreciated! 🙏🏼🤗🙏🏼
Oh Absolutely! She is one who will screw You around and afterwards tell you it's your own fault as you knew how she is...🤔😕😲 And also if I will be around it is better to know, instead of in the past thinking this is my "family reunion", not!
Magical Mid-Week!
Stay Happy and Blessed - ALL WAYS!
👍🏼🙏🏼😁🙏🏼👍🏼
I wish it for You!
Let's Make this Mid-Week Magical and Count!
Positive Energy Mid-Week to YOU!
🙋🏻♀️✨✨✨🌞✨✨✨🙋🏻♀️
Really… most houses are unoccupied here now. So they must see our lights in the house.
I am lucky… and I sooooo do not complain 😎😎😁🤓 nope I am not.
That’s good to hear they didn’t last to long… all went well ✨🤞🏻🍀
Anytime my friend. 😉
Wow, what a personality. 🥶😬 ice cold… family doesn’t always mean good things. I sooo know…
Thank you kindly @lesmann let’s make this week magical!
Make it count and let’s send positive energy out there so it will continue to change and guide us on the right path. Up to new changes and directions.
Let’s do this!
Happy mid-week 👋🏻✨🍀🤞🏻✨🍀🤞🏻
Talk soon.
Yes if Your house is the only lights around they can draw them from quit a distance, as the only light they see is yours.
Yes You are! Large bugs are " upsetting" to put it mildly...
Funny huh? Here they just drifted over and out to sea. But since it was a line the fat one got to drive back all the way in it! 😎🤓😁
My sister and brother are ice cold.. And think they are not - my sister for sure.. No family does "NOT".
Your Always Welcome @littlebee4 and Thank You as well My Friend! 👍🏼🤗👍🏼
Yes let's keep the ball rolling and keep the Positivity"Up"!
Let's Do This and Make the rest of the week count as Well!
Take Care and Always Stay Safe and Happy,, and..
Happy Cappuccino's to You!
👋🏼☕👋🏼
Never thought about that, but you are right. I think this little Urbanizacion has about 80 houses and I guess about 20 only occupied right now. I’m at the end stretch a dead end literally. One house in. Here I only see movement in 3.
I know there are neighbours on the side… as I smell they already put a fireplace on the last few days. It isn’t even that cold inside 23 degrees Celsius, so no idea why they light a fire but ok… other than that. I never see movement. Like little hermits. Hidden away. No light either, they close all shutters.
Really crazy he did that.
I can understand fully… been there got the t-shirt kind of thing. Other than the occasional contact via text with my 88 year old mum… I have no contact with family.
Thanks @lesmann 😊 and you are too. Anytime.
Exactly let’s do that. Let’s make this week count and be the week of changes!
Happy Thursday to you.
Bee 🐝 happy and have a wonderful day.
Hope less dizzy today and no headache.
Take care my friend. 🤞🏻🍀✨☀️
What a lovely market Friday experience! :) I love your featured store. It looks like a nice place to go buy some supplies :) Love the overall autumn feel of the entire area too :) Enjoy your weekend!

Thank you so much @iamraincrystal 😊
It was such a great vacation in the US. Never been in such a store and read about them. I just had to visit.
We went in the perfect season, fall leaves are started to change… 🍁🍁 the trip overall was just epic.
Thanks so much for the support, have a wonderful weekend! 👋🏻☀️
Beautiful pics... you chose the perfect time to visit Vermont, so beautiful in fall with these colors.
Thank you so much @heroldius 😊 I was happy to see the start of the leaves changing. The day we went up to Vermont we saw the most reds 🍁🍁🍁🍁 just stunning. Will visit it for sure again.
Have a great weekend!
You picked the perfect time to visit Vermont!! The color palette is incredible at this time of the season! I know the exact store you went to!!!! It is insanely popular and you don't even have to go too far into Vermont to get there.
I am with you on the potbellied stove and sitting around it. My parents had a house in New Hampshire and it was a fun house for us to visit from Connecticut. It was close to Lake Winnipesaukee and it had an old switchboard for the town. The people that owned it ran the switchboard way back when and had a nice pot-bellied stove in the kitchen. When we went skiing up there in the winter, I loved taking my shoes off and warming my feet near them.
Oh, the memories.
There are many places there and close to where you will be that have General Stores that have been there for many, many years. And then many more than that. You have picked a nice part of the country where you can visit 4 or five states in one day, which you probably did. :) I am happy that you got there before winter and you will find that spring and the beginning of Autumn will be your favorite seasons. :)
I look forward to seeing more of your posts!
Thank you for participating in #MarketFriday! I appreciate the time and effort that goes into putting a post together for the challenge. It is with great pleasure that I read through and realize how much we have all tried to include things in our world that may be unique to the area. I have learned so much about the different cultures of the world, especially the small things that go unnoticed except by those looking for them. Life is interesting, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. I hope the week has found you healthy and happy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.

Exactly, as we stayed in the centre of the Berkshires, this was a great road trip up for one day and still see some beautiful things. We went up through New York State towards Manchester than to that store and on the right side of Vermont border down again. Stopping at a few things. I share all later 🤓😎
Those are just the best stoves. The heat they disperse… and even when it off, it beams out still the heat for a long time.
That sounds just lovely and I could visualise it Denise 😁😊 I love fire places or old iron stoves… so great in the cold days.
That’s why we chose that location, to be able to experience a few States and get the feel of areas.
The time was perfect. Such a relief from hot 🥵 Spain. The air was fresh, crispy in the morning. It was lovely… I sooo needed that. In many ways. Believe me.
Thank you so much @dswigle I’m sure they will be there my favourite seasons 🥰🤗😊
Have the most wonderful weekend, enjoy your trip!
!PIZZA
Wao, this stores looks so amazing and I am so sure you are going to get almost everything you need from them
Thank you so much for checking out my post @temi-tee 😊 it was amazing to see. It was so large and they had so much. I didn’t take to many photos, as there were lots of people. So didn’t want to disturb them in there shopping. But glad I could share a bit from it.
Have a great weekend!
Yeah, it was a nice one, I love them.. And you also enjoy your weekend
Thanks a lot 😁👋🏻
You are welcome
Lovely autumn colors and lots of pumpkins too! Interesting packaging of those blocks of cheese. I would probably buy one of each lol! I can imagine myself enjoying coffee or reading or just relaxing by the fireplace :)
Happy #MarketFriday!
Thank you so much @leeart 👋🏻😊
It was the perfect time to visit for fall colours.
I know… I almost did buy them. Just to try hahaha 🤣
Have a great Saturday happy #marketfriday!
just gotta love autumn colours, and that store looks like a great place to spend a lot of dollars!!! Nice blog @littlebee4
Thank you so much @grindle 😊😎 that store had so many nice things… if we didn’t have to look what fit in our luggage we would have bought stuff… hahaha 🤣

Yes, autumn is an amazingly beautiful time of the year when the foliage of trees acquires such bright multicolored shades! 😃 amazing store! It's very atmospheric inside. it would be interesting to wander there
Thank you so much @tali72 😊👋🏻
The perfect season to visit weather wise too. Not to hot…. Nice fresh and crisp air. The leaves changing colours..l I so loved it.
Will share some more of our travels there this week 😁
It was a great store. Thanks for visiting it with me.
Have a great day further. 🤗
