Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Thrive to spite them
smonster glad you got such an awesome house!
Nora, I'm sorry about your grandma and upcoming family shenanigans.
Nora, yeah I'm still getting used to the differences in seasons and things, but so far I like everything. Especially having different towns so close by. St Albans is small but it doesn't take that long to get to Burlington or Williston or wherever. My commute when I first started working at the airport took a little bit longer than it takes to get to Burlington.
It also means I have a bigger variety of food and places to eat. There are 2 new food carts on Church St in Burlington - a Turkish tea cart that also serves food and a mashed potato cart. They based it off the mashed potato bars you see at weddings. Only they fry the mashed potatoes up on a grill and mix in the toppings right there.

{{{Nora}}} I'm so sorry for your loss. May the family drama be less dramatic than you expect it to be.

Is the first (I think it's the first) Ben & Jerry's in the converted gas station still there?
Oh, what memories I have of going there in all sorts of weather for luscious ice cream. Of course, UVM also had a lovely dairy bar with excellent ice cream and lots of other dairy products.
smonster: whoo hoo for NOLA!
