Comb Tooth fungus (Hericium coralloides). I usually hunt for these amazing edible mushrooms when I'm hiking. Found this one at Colchester Pond near Burlington, Vermont. I eat every one I find, Jenn doesn't...more for me! #vermont #hiking #mushrooms #funghi #welovetoexplore
View from the Burlington bike path. We rented bikes from Local Motion and rode 8 miles out to the causeway to see Lake Champlain (then another 8 miles back to the bike shop). The path was flat for the most part which made the ride very comfortable and easy. This was one of the stops along the way. We were hoping to see a moose but no such luck! #burlingtonbikepath #vermont #roadtrip #localmotion #bikevermont #outdoors

It's a 2-star hotel. Parked my car, connected to Wi-Fi, slept, showered, had my bagel and coffee. Paid 80 bucks. That's a good deal to me.
