Since I’ve posted about cold and snow recently, I thought I had better show you the end result of the most recent winter storm that came through northern Vermont. We got about a foot, or perhaps a little more as the snow had had a little time to compress by the time I took the photo above. It’s… Read More »
How you know that you’ve got the “Vermont” zap on your brain: you look out the window and see this much snow and go “eh, we didn’t get very much.”
