GL: Lake Champlain provisioning

[Dennis Bruckel]

Agreed that it's a lovely town, and I visit it nearly every year. But, it's
one hell of a walk to a real supermarket. 
 
I have many spectacular photos of the falls, especially in late afternoon.
It's only 30-40 miles from where I lived for 30 years.
 
BTW, there are 2 N's in "Vergennes". (The locals like it that way).
Unfortunately, the local bus service stopped a couple of year ago. But,
there is still free dockage on both the north and south side of Otter Creek
below the falls.
 
On the way from Lake Champlain up Otter Creek, keep to the port close to
the bank for the deepest water. From there, it's deep water all the way,
bank to bank.
