Yesterday, I rode across Vermont in the morning. Yes, all the way across a state

I may make it to the coast today. It is a little of a streach, but we will see what happens. I think there should be a lot of down hill.

I took the tour today. Very interesting. I have seen many pictures from the 1850-80′s. On the tour I would walk into a room and recognize it. It was very cool.

The building is 93,000 sq/ft. There is a lot to see. I am going to have to go back and stay in the house. Take some time just meandering and reading. They have an amazing library, so many old books.

I took lots of pictures.

So, I made it to Oneida. I rode by the Oneida Community Mansion and looked around the town. Tomorrow, I will take the tour and be on my way. So, in a way today is a rest day.

I found the Oneida books that I have been looking for for about 2 weeks. I have been reading most of the morning. I found a great book that is a reproduction of a diary of a community member from 1876 with commentary. The member, a man, fell in love with another member. Personal and community strife followed. They ultimatly left the community. Very interesting.

Over all Oneida is a very pleasent town. There are huge, wonderful, brick houses everywhere. It is a town that seems like it has been around forever and will last forever too.
