Picture This: Serena O’Brien

“This is me and my sister, Laura and we are standing at the top of Mount Mansfield, which is the highest point in Vermont. It was a pretty good hike to get up. It was about three miles up, three miles down, which isn’t that many miles but there was a lot of elevation gain. The trails were these big flat rocks with water running down them so it was really slippery. But it was a lot of fun. We were in Vermont because my sister who is 18, this year is her first year of college. At the end of last summer we dropped her off at the University of Vermont, and before we dropped her off we did one last family trip before she goes to college. I really love the view in the background.”
