Pump House on the lake shore - Canon 7D MII | EF 135MM F2L
For Father’s Day Weekend, we spent a couple days in Burlington Vermont for a soccer tournament. We stayed downtown at the Marriott Courtyard, which was convenient for getting out-and-about to take some photos when we were not at the soccer field. I managed to walk just short of 10 miles while out taking pics; visiting Church Street, the lake shore, and the University of Vermont during the weekend.

We then walked over to the Eastern State Penitentiary for a self-guided tour of the world’s first “penitentiary” style prisons. The prison is a large complex that is partly restored and visitors have access to much of the grounds.
