a postcard from waterbury, vermont...

Where it all began for Ben and Jerry's back in 1978...
Waterbury, Vermont.


We toured the plant...
and had a 'wee snack' before we left.

Cherry Garcia...for him.  
Always.
Strawberry cheesecake for me.

We asked for 'small'.
When we saw them...
we knew there was no way we could finish them.
We did!
No need for dinner after that.

Today we are crossing through New Hampshire and on to Maine.

Until next time...

  3. I'm shocked that you could get near the place. We opted out when we tried a few years ago. Parking in the back forty on a hot summer's day was not too appealing. We did enjoy our tour immensely on an April day when five other folks made the tour with us. Happy Trails!

  11. Hey...you could have come here..I have several varieties of Ben and Jerry's in my freezer right now. Somehow I think that eating it there would win out! We both enjoyed this one.
