There's another great attraction here that I know will enjoy. No trip to Stowe is complete without a visit to the Von Trapp family Lodge. It's the second biggest reason after skiing that visitors come to the area. Situated on 2500 acres this Austrian mountain beauty is run by members of the original Von Trapp family that inspired the movie The Sound of Music.

It’s the location where the gondola departs, but be aware that the gondola's warm weather operation only begins in mid-September, which is, of course, when foliage season really gets going.

argest ski resort and also known as America's Family Resort.

The cozy village of Stowe is just ahead, where we will come to the junction of Route 100. If we decide to explore the village a bit we’ll turn left and go find parking.

And yes, I do have a place for that and it's coming up quickly.

We are right in the middle of my favorite food lover's stretch of Route 100. There are some great places to stop and sample more of Vermont's most loved food delicacies here.

We are getting close to the town of Waterbury. One of Waterbury’s more famous tourist spots involves ice cream, but there is another mega brand business based here as well that we might also enjoy visiting.

As you can imagine this is a very popular place and just about the most visited attraction in all of Vermont. Going to need you to be patient while we're here and don't be surprised if we have some short waits during the peak times of the year, where it’s summer and foliage season.

It looks to me like we've decided to drive Route 17 to Mad River Glen and maybe even a little further to the App Gap itself. Its less than 10 minute to the Gap, and we'll see the ski area before that.

One of Vermont's more famous ski resorts, but there are also lots of summer activities for kids of every age, even the really old kids like me.

It's another quirky little town and definitely worth the drive through. Driving through town will bring us back onto this road and we won't miss anything.

The Robert Frost interpretive trail for a little thoughtful, quiet time. I love it. This road will be traveling on right now, route 125 is one of the six mountain gaps or mountain passages of Vermont and very popular with the New England bicycle riding community.

Visit the Green Mountain Cafe and Visitor Center. You'll see the beautifully restored train station that's now the Visitor Center, and it's at the end of the first block.

The Notch cemetery where President Coolidge is buried is located on Lynn's Hill Road, coming up on our right. To skip the cemetery and go directly to the Coolidge homestead, we'll see the entrance driveway on our left as we round the curve.

That's great, I lovethis place, thanks for bringing me along. It'll be about a 4 mile drive to the Base Lodge. We can stop along the way and grab some lunch or a snack, or maybe a cup of tea or a cappuccino.

Mountain Resort, a popular ski area.

In a couple of minutes, we'll have the opportunity to make a stop that you might not have been expecting today.

The next town, as we follow Route 100 is going to be the town of Londonderry. Londonderry, Vermont, got its name from Londonderry, New Hampshire, which got its name from Londonderry in Northern Ireland.

For travelers doing a thorough exploration of Vermont, it might be nice to take some time to visit Jamaica State Park.

In just about a mile will be coming to the intersection of Route 100 and Route 103. If it's a particularly hot day, I might be able to tempt you with a quick visit to Buttermilk Falls.
