Last Friday in Vermont

    Hi everyone. Happy end of another work week for many people. Today I am joining Nicole for Friday Face Off  and Gillena for  Friday Lunch Break.

    Last Friday my husband and I took a road trip over to Norwich, Vermont. I wanted to visit the King Arthur Flour baking store. (You can check out this post: T Day-Trip to King Arthur Flour if you're curious about the baking store.) Plus the change of scenery was nice.

 One place that is fun to visit (besides King Arthur's baking store) in Norwich is  Dan and Whit's.  Dan and Whit's is an old fashioned general store, and their motto is

  It doesn't look like much from the outside, does it? When you walk inside it's like walking into a mini-food store. If you didn't know better, you might grab a snack, a drink, or maybe lunch from the deli in the back. But if you wander behind  the deli, (and it seems like you are walking into  the employee only section)  this store seems to go on and on. You'll never know what you'll find there. Here's a small selection.

There's garden supplies of all kinds, not just seeds.

It's  sap season so maybe you need maple syruping supplies. You can get everything from the tubing you run from tree to tree along with buckets and syrup bottle.

I haven't seen one of these sleds in years. I didn't know they still made them.

And if you have horses, there's a selection of supplies besides this grooming block. They have dog and cat supplies too.

     They also sell some kitchen supplies. If you have anything you need to can they have what you'd need, or if your oil lamp needs a new wick you can get those too. And you could get a ladle, a tea cup. a serving spoon or lots of other things too.

   My dogs are old, but I took this next photo of these orange  fleece dog coats because I could have used them during hunting season when the dogs were younger. Then they had the energy and sometimes would  run off into the woods behind the house. Well maybe the next dog (some  day in the future) will need one, and I'll know where to get one  should that be the case.

And even though I don't need any, I love Soulmate socks.

Isn't this a fabulous old chest in the hardware section?

And if you're brave enough (or able enough) to climb up these steep old stairs you'd get  to the clothing section.

    They have some work style clothes for sale, and of course, Dan and Whit T shirts. Plus there is this cool old stage.  I wonder if this building was an old school at one time.

    Even the floor and a couple of those hanging lights look vintage.

     I wouldn't mind a couple of those old filing cabinets  in my house. I wonder if they held student records back in the day; that is if this building was an old school.

      And here's my face for Friday Face off. I really like this photo. I just wish the floor vent wasn't there, but even with it there,  I still really like this photo.

     It is always fun to walk through Dan and Whit's to see what you might find. I love that's it's an old fashion store and not a big box store and also that it hasn't really  modernized all that much. There's enough of those modern stores around everywhere else. 

     That's all for me. Have a great Friday and start to your weekend.
