Thank you! You all were so helpful I was able to cancel our flight. Don't need it to be peak foliage, but sounds like I'm better off waiting

I mean nothing against brown trees, but we see enough of them in our area- we have a bit of a fall but it's short and not as beautiful as New England's, of course

Thanks. Yeah, we live just far enough (about an 8-hour drive from northern VA) so that we have to buy a plane ticket and request leave far in advance- all tricky for variable fall foliage patterns.

I do love snow, but probably less so if I'm hoping for autumn foliage

We were going to do Burlington and then were planning to spend time in southern VT to maximize foliage. We live just far enough to have to fly/thus plan ahead- we'll have to try another year!

Thank you for responding! The foliage definitely isn't the ONLY reason for going- I think Vermont sounds beautiful in general. But, since I've never been I do want to see it in some of its foliage finery- I live in northern Virginia, so we have a fair amount of brown/stick season here too :) I cancelled my flight, but will try again next fall.

Lol, you'll miss me. Have fun though! Low season anywhere is the best. Honestly I'd still like to see VT, but what with limited vacation time/funds I want to visit a somewhat prettier time of year.

Thank you for replying so quickly!! I went ahead and cancelled it- bummer but I was happy to get the money back and save it for next fall!

Nice! I have a fantasy of buying a second home (don't own a first home lol) in Vermont at some point, despite never having actually been there, so definitely need to visit soon
