I have so many great memories of Island Pond and one doozy (I was there visiting during the raid as a kid). My grandfather was a railroad man there for years.

Love me some turtle fur

Not clothing, but if you need some exercise gear, Concept 2 is the world's gold standard for rowing machines (Ergs) . They also make ski ergs and bikes.

Made in Morrisville, Vermont.

Also, if you need clover seed or wildflowers for future landscaping American Meadows out of Williston, VT is a great company.

American Meadows

I grew up in Vermont, and in the extensive woods around our house, there was clear evidence of old logging campsites (old paths, clearings etc.) Being kids who loved Indiana Jones we started digging at the campsites and found old Milk of Magnesia bottle and a number of brown cod liver oil bottles. My mother still has them.

I was thinking, pricey is relative, so I looked it up. Yeah, you're not kidding, lol.

I enjoyed the Senator in Augusta, a lovely indoor pool.

The Senator

The Island Pond Raid of 1984, the fallout, and the precedents set as a result.

Thinking along the lines of Island Pond, Vermont's history with the railroad (Grand Trunk, Rutland Railroad, etc.) You could look at the New Amtrac line and even tell the tale of Phineas Gage.

Beyond Ben & Jerry's, a look at Vermont businesses that are known world wide. For example, Concept 2 is the gold standard for rowing machines (ergs) used all around the world by collegiate and Olympic teams for training.

Not really questions more like general ideas, but I can frame out questions if needed.

How so? Vermonters actually seem to pay attention to the candidate and not strictly the party. There is a reason it is one of the states that splits the ticket in governor and senator parties.

The cliffs offer great views and are not that far from the road (though steep in places). Check to see if they are closed due to Peregrine Falcon nesting before hiking up there if you intend to see the cliffs.

Hope your situation has improved.

Plus Simon the cobbler is there.

Indeed he did. Here is a commencement speech he gave to the class of 2012. He was a 1991 grad.

Ask Peter Dinklage.

Indeed. I've lived in many open carry states and the folks packing in the open may be a deterrent, but if rounds are going down range I would rather have the element of surprise in my toolkit. That and it makes it harder for someone to make up a story of you threatening them with a gun just because they know you have one.

Well that and if someone has ill intent... shoot the guy advertising he is carrying first.
