The Boy and I are going to try for late September/early October, b/c he's never been to Vermont, so I figure his first time should be during Leaf Season.
Oh, TOTALLY. Good choice.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
The Philadelphia Zoo is my very favorite! It's awesome.
San Diego's Faunapalooza tops my list. But Philly is well worth the trip, as is Cincinnati's. And Melbourne Zoo, I might add. I must also give props to America Zoo in Hershey, simply because for me it was way convenient to be able to visit a North American-specific zoological garden, and the zoo on Phillip Island, which has the most reliable echidna exhibit I know of. (Bonus Phillip Island treat: the Penguin Parade!)

Don't worry, I won't stalk you guys, we'll just hang around the Alchemist till you show up! Tough work indeed.

TCG and I need to get up to Vermont soon and start looking at possible elopement places, if only so people will stop asking me if we still plan on getting married.

Summer's a good time, sj, because it's off season and it's a little easier to get in to see places and talk to people.
Going up during leaf peeping season could become an expensive and traffic-y proposition, if you're doing a lot of driving around looking at places. And innkeepers are fairly harried at that time.

So here I am, finishing up some work, ready to send a data table to my boss. I paste it into the email, and find I haven't cleared my clipboard:
"The Philadelphia Zoo is my very favorite! It's awesome."
He'll be glad to know I've been productive.

(not to discourage you from going up in the fall, sj! Just that a research trip going to several places might be better done in the summer. We researched in spring and got married in the fall, so that's how we worked it.)

We're going to look in the summer and hopefully book something for the fall, if we still can. We've been slacking because of the move.
