Hello again Maple People,

There’s something about our Vermont winter that brings total awe from traveling folks; “How do you survive in the winter? Can you get out at all? Do they even try to plow the snow or is there simply too much?…those are the questions they ask in the same tone as if puzzling craters on the moon. I, seven generation Vermonter, am always tempted to “milk” it…”hell no…we just put on some extra fat and hibernate.”. But, being a Vermonter, I always tell the truth; “Vermonters are pros at winter” I say.

If there is one thing I look forward to in my email each month it has to be the latest “News from Vermont” from Burr Morse. Each email brings a dose of Vermont all the way down south where I call home and makes me wonder sometimes why I never gave in to that wanderlust that called me to that northern state back in my younger days. I would link to this months issue but the only way to read each issue is to subscribe to the email newsletter.

If you are ever in the area, stop and visit Burr. Tell him we sent ya…
