A stroll through Shelburne Falls and afterwards

Alisa and I spent the morning in Shelburne Falls, after dropping Daniel and a friend off at a local camp for an overnight adventure. We had a lovely time strolling through the town, wandering through artists' shops, and looking at the glacial potholes. We looked for a place to have a cup of coffee, but weren't especially attracted to any of the places in town. We stopped at the Shelburne Falls Coffee Roaster on the way back, but I didn't like that either. So we ended up just going to the People's Pint for lunch instead.

The People's Pint is a wonderful place. I don't go there very often, because I rarely have a reason to go to Greenfield, but since they sponsored the "Pedal2Pints" bicycle tour, I've been making excuses to go. Alisa hadn't been before, but was pleased with the service and the food.

They had a new IPA: Zeus IPA. I tried it, but found it too flowery. So for my second glass, I got the Pied Piper IPA: A fine, workmanlike glass of beer.

Alisa got a flight of the different ciders to try. Cider. Blech.

After lunch, I used my time productively to nap and read: getting over a cold is hard work.
