Our Annual Vermont Trip 2008

On Columbus weekend the Jeans, the Lemieuxs, Rita, Ray and I went to Killington, Vt. for our annual "retreat" together. We've been doing this for years now. It's always a great pleasure to be in colorful Vermont amongst good friends and the smell of maple syrup and apple cider in the air. The weekend always goes by too fast but we always look forward to our next get-together in December. The following are some of the pictures I took on our trip. Enjoy!

We always participate in their Sunday liturgy on
