Travel To Stowe Vermont - Ski Vacation Capital Of The East
Nothing says New England like a small white church with it's
steeple rising in the air high above orange, yellow and red hued
fall leaves beneath a sky so blue that you can actually feel the
cripsness of the fall air. One of these most famous New England
churches is the Stowe Community Church in the beautiful 200 plus
year old town of Stowe Vermont.

and lamp shop, ice cream parlor, a book store, Vermont made

an old fashioned general store tucked behind the shops that

candies and any array of souvenirs you might need.
