Wheatie:
If your in the Stratton area, might want to head over to Manchester VT. Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln's son Robert had his home ( Hildene ) in Manchester, which was originally built as a summer retreat:

Hildene is on Route 7A, south from the center of Manchester. The access road to the estate from 7A is dirt, but is maintained.
Another interesting visit would be to take the Mt Equinox Skyline Drive, toll road, to the top , 3848 ft., access from 7A about 5 miles south of Hildene. With the Cobra, you will enjoy the drive to the top with the elevation change and turns.

I have not been there for a number+++ of years, on Route 11 in Peru past Bromley Mountain is a good place to eat, at least the last time I was there, Johnny Seesaw's Restaurant, a former road house. Has the Vermont character.
