Christmas Wasn't Always a New England Tradition
For many, New England imagery is what first appears to mind's eye at the mention of Christmas. But it wasn't always the right vision in Vermont. Putting a partridge in a pear tree on December 25th could land you in the stocks and a few shillings short. Read the story. |

| Don't Punish Vermont for the Poor Judgment of a Man on a Bench
When Edward Cashman sentenced a sexual predator and child rapist to sixty days in jail, he made headlines around the world, and the governor's office became the target of a tsunami-like response from people justifiably angry. Most of them threatened to cross Vermont off their vacation lists and said they'd swear off Vermont-made products. We were just as outraged as all of them, but we ask that they
don't punish Vermont for the atrocities of the man on a bench. Read the Editorial.

Learn about how the Pilgrims built and established Plimoth Plantation. It was hardly an easy task, made all the more difficult by weather and failed crops. It's now a living history museum well worth the visit.

Make Sure to Check the Weather Before you Come.
Mother Nature is a caprious old gal. If you don't like the weather, wait a while. That's the saying in the northern most New England states where the weather changes can be abrupt and tough to drive through, although the folks who clear the roads up here in winter do a smashing job.
