Now that fall is winding down, pretty soon it will be the start of Vermont skiing! This year it looks like it will start early as the weather seems to be getting colder earlier.
Vermont ski resorts are getting everything ready for a good season and each year they add more snow making equipment, trails and other things.
The major Vermont ski resorts have added lots of things. Of course the new Stowe Mountain Lodge has everything you could want and more. (more…)
Besides taking a lot of fall foliage pictures in Vermont this year, I managed to take some Vermont youtube videos also. One day during a sunny day this fall I took a ride up the gondola cars in Stowe.
The gondolas go up the side of Mount Mansfield, which is the highest peak in Vermont. Once you get up there you can hike, enjoy the view or eat inside the Cliff House restaurant.
Of course in the winter skiers use the gondola cars to get up there and do some nice skiing. Right across the road is the Stowe Mountain Lodge. The gondolas go right to the lodge during the winter. (more…)

Fall is the most beautiful time to visit Vermont, and it’s even better if you stay at a Vermont Inn. But lets talk a moment about what a real Vt Inn is and what you should expect from one.
Just what is a Vermont Inn, or any Inn for that matter? It’s actually an old term that was used to describe anyplace that had a room for rent for the night or longer. Just like we now call “pubs” bars.
In fact in the old days most country pubs had a few rooms upstairs they would rent out. So they called them Inns; a place to drink, get a meal and a room for the night or two. (more…)
Wow, it’s been a long time since I wrote anything on here! The summer has gone by too fast as always and soon it will be Labor Day weekend here in Vermont. That means the end of summer, the start of school and getting ready for fall.

Burlington, Vermont always has a few special events here and there, plus many stores have Labor Day weekend sales. There’s always plenty of flea markets and farmers markets having one last sale also. (more…)
