Long Weekend Travels and Exploration

This weekend, St. Mikes had Friday off, so students had the option of either going home or enjoying a class free day on campus.  With my friends, it was split half way, some were going home and some were staying.  I decided to head to Southern Vermont (White River Junction) for the weekend!
What I think is so great about going to a school where a good chunk are from the Vermont/New England area is that you have so many options to go home with different people for holidays and weekends.  So even though I am far from home, someone always offers their house for breaks, that's just how St. Mikes is!
This was the first time I had been to Southern Vermont, other than just driving through to get to Boston (where I've spent my past two Thanksgivings).  One of the highlights of the weekend was going snow shoeing, which I had never tried before!

And after a day of exploring, we went  to the Dartmouth v Yale Hockey game.  it was such a good game, ending in a 3-3 tie.
After such a relaxing weekend, I'm excited to get back to St. Mikes and jump right in with Bella rehearsal.
