[ There is info on a new brewery so keep reading through my shameless Credit Union speech. ]
We planned our trip around the inaugural meeting for The Credit Union Young Professionals of Vermont that I helped my friend and mentor plan. I'm a typical millennial and want my career to have meaning, I'm not just in it for the money to pay bills [a little bit of a lie since our student loans are hell]. My time away from my family has to be for good reason and working for our Credit Union does just that. Not to get all philosophical but credit unions are for the people, they are a co-op and are there to help the community and especially the underbanked.
There's my shameless plug for the day and on-to the pictures of my kids that the grandparents will love :P

| The newest brewery just opened up in Burlington so we had to stop in and try it. Foam Brewers is right on the water, just down from Skinny Pancake and totally makes me wish we lived closer and had a nanny that could chase after our kids as we sat and drank beer. It seems to attract a younger crowd but seeing as it is a bit of a college town that's to be expected, although it did make me feel especially old :( |
We topped off our day with a quick visit to Echo Aquarium - also right on the water and .25miles from the brewery. We're members so we love to just stop in for a half hour, look at some fish and then head out and we never feel like we wasted our entrance fee. FYI - if you're a member you also get free entry into a ton of museums around the country including the Boston Kids Museum, the Boston Natural History Museum, Syracuse MOST, and 3 different museums in Ithaca as well. It's so worth it and one of the best kept secrets there is.
Well that was our weekend. This weekend we have an open house to sell our tiny home in the city in hopes of a little more land for our kids and dog to run around on. Wish us luck!
