I've got 30 on the way. $5 each for Vermonters. Tourists can pay the tourist tax.

I'm thinking of buying eclipse glasses in bulk now and then reselling them at twice the price next year.
Capitalism!

Leaving the house TOO clean got us busted once. There's no way we would have voluntarily taken the trash out if it wasn't full of beer cans and solo cups...

I think you fundamentally misunderstand what this project is.
Telephone Gap is a place name in Vermont, and this is a pretty comprehensive project to protect and improve it.
They're not clear cutting for a road and telephone services.

Reply to Question about colleges by Aidy9n
I went to St Mike's in the '90s and found the faculty and student body generally supportive of LGBTQ people. It's a much smaller community than UVM and everyone lives on campus so there's a lot less anonymity for people to hide behind and be dicks.
That said, I'm straight so I don't have any real first hand experience, but I wouldn't let the Catholic thing bother you.
Have you looked into Champlain College also?

Same. Gets a little dodgier in the summer when the leaves are back (I'm kind of down in a hole behind a line of trees and close to the lake) but it's free!

You can boat into the Canadian side of a waterway, but you can't disembark onto land.

I don't think we're talking about the same thing. The Trat is definitely not a pizza place.

Trattoria Delia. Request the small table for 2 near the fireplace for date night. Or the semi-private room next to it for a group.

What year is yours? Mine's currently stored in my garage for the winter and needs a bit of work to get roadworthy again (clutch hydraulics). I have all the parts and plan to DIY that in the spring.

Reply to Crazy weather incoming... winter storm expected to bring snow, rain, strong wind, a flash freeze, subzero wind chills, then MORE snow Friday into Saturday. Just a normal day in Vermont! Here's a summary from the National Weather Service. by Met_BenFrechette
I'd recommend filling your car up with gas while you can. If power goes out in your area the pumps won't work, and you can use your car to charge devices.

CSWD has (or had) buckets you could pick up for free. I keep a small one in the back of my fridge and empty it every few days. My condo development has trash/recycling/compost pick-up for the whole neighborhood.
