one of which slopes up at a sharp angle, and the other slopes down
For a moment this had me very confused. I didn't get how one could be up and not down and the other down and not up.
But I'm good now.
I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Alas, poor Hamish.
Vermont seems like a nice place to visit, but I don't do massive amounts of snow. I might feel differently if I was in love.

Ah, good point! I guess depending on your vantage point, they do each slope both ways. From the road, one slopes up and the other slopes down; serendipitously, from the house, one slopes down and the other slopes up! How did they DO that?!?

And I walked 10 miles through the snow to school and it was uphill both ways.

RIP, Hamish.

The only thing I remember about Vermont was when we would go on road trips from NY to Vermont my dad would stock up on booze. Apparently at least at that time the taxes were much lower. I don't know if this is still the case. Lots of pretty there. We went across Lake Champlain in an ice breaking ferry one time and that was very cool, and noisy.

Seska, I'm sorry to hear about Hamish!
We're at the beach! It's freezing cold, but we managed to outrun the snow!

Seska, my sympathies to you. Poor wee Hamish.

Vermont seems lovely, both geographically and people-wise. And, as I'm thinking (a little bit, not that seriously) about moving back to the midwest, I can't really kick about the snow aspect.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
WAIT WHAT NOOOOOOO!
