Christmas week is a mad house. Everything will be packed. Even getting a drink will take forever.

Even trying to find a bathroom could be problematic.

That episode is one of my all time favorites.

Little boy, what are you doing?

We have been members for decades. We have all our loans through them.

Excellent service.

What don't you like? I have had no issues with it. I don't belong to any other banks so I can't compare.

Yes

For how long?

Rental cars come with all season tires which are not very good in wintery conditions. Pegs has great vehicles for all winter conditions. With everything considered, I think her rate is not as bad as you are making it out to be.

If you were to go with Pegs, set your pickup date/time well in advance.

The Rohan St Marthe signs really caught me by surprise. Right before the election they popped up everywhere. I had never heard of him before. Looking at his LinkedIn profile it looks like he lives in Boston

511 says it is closed the Vermont Agency of Transportation has not posted anything about this.

It works for me as well but not everyone.

True, becoming a volunteer fire person is a huge commitment. One that I was not willing to make.

Love your user name.

because I know a lot of very lonely people.

Yeah, I was lucky that I moved here when I was young and participated in a lot of activities that introduced me to a lot of people. School & work also helped.

I couldn't imagine moving here if I was older.

Vermont is not an easy place to make friends. People assume it is but it isn't. Especially the older you get. If you don't have old friends and are old, you are screwed.

There are times where it snows up high & the state hasn't had time to respond. Speed had nothing to do with it.

The signs are often still on when the Notch is closed

This is the best way to find out when it is closed. They have been known to close it and reopen it the next day.

This doesn't mean that it's safe. Have had some white knuckle drives through it.

yes. It only comes to light when they go to sell the house. At least from my view.

3 cheers for her boyfriend. He was quick thinking and brave. Not sure what I would have done in that situation.

I am guessing this is not over with. Bears attacking people is extremely rare.

This is the kind of stuff that happens when there are too many bears.

I am for keeping dogs on leashes in most circumstances but I disagree with you here.

Most people with a yard (in a rural area) and a dog that won't take off, will let their dog out to do it's business. I always did. Granted my dogs were medium sized dogs. After my dogs did their business, they were anxious to get back in to be with us.

I am not advocating letting your dog roam.

Even the game warden did say put your dog on a leash.

Game warden Kyle Isherwood said: “Before letting pets out at night, I would urge Vermonters to light their yards and make plenty of noise to allow wildlife in the area time to move on.”

> How does this hurt you? Who cares?

So we should only complain about or discuss things, that cause us harm or damage?

To me this is like a saying we got 2' of snow when we only got 4".

I thought the thief running away was hysterical.

Sorry for you loss. That just sucks! Odds are whom ever took doesn't even play disc golf.
