Well, I finished the awning. I will take photos next week when she is all set up at her site in VT. I spent the weekend getting her ready for a 9-night adventure in VT. Now that I have used the dorf a few times, I am realizing what works and what doesn't. I don't need a hanging closet, that's for sure. So I just put up two shelves in the closet. I will probably modify them or add more. I just wanted a start to better organize the space. I also got a hanging tent for inside my dining canopy. I wanted wind walls for rainy days. Well the full tent that hangs inside the canopy cost the same. I will take photos of it next week. I had never seen such a tent. I would like more screen area, but I think it will be good.
I spent my last full day mainly cleaning up and drying things out. I did manage to take a 3 hour hike up Bromley where I was treated to great views of Equinox, Stratton and a 360 view of the green mountains. A storm came along and started to rain when I got to the bottom. That night a violent storm lit the black sky. I decided to head to my friends restaurant...and have a good meal. 
Canoeing on Grout Pond on Stratton MT. There are primitive campsite here...but no trailers.
It started out a dry walk. Down the West River from my campground is Ball Mt. Lake and Dam. The West River Trail passes over the dam. There a nine switchbacks on the one side. Hamilton Falls is the tallest water falls in VT. It was just beautiful...even though a thunderstorm erupted when I got there...and I was 2 miles from my car.
I treked into Branch Pond on Stratton Mountain. It was a lovely forest walk of birch, hemlock and ferns.
