Their pico is amazing and fresh- get that with chips and not the Small sides of salsa that you can get with a meal—-you’ll see a huge difference

My bad. I secured covered parking for the winter.

This is Potomac Winter right here. Brown and depressing.

Either way it’s interesting to see. Idk of another place that has a record of snowpack with as much data. Not a skier, but pulling taps in the spring some years really makes you appreciate how much snow accumulation we still get (also in central VT, my hometown as well)

I guess it wouldn't surprise me much that the tallest mountain in the northeast hasn't seen a reduction in accumulation.

It certainly doesn't stick like it used to at any of the ski resorts in central Vermont (my hometown).

Nationwide crime rates are plummeting and VT was rated as the safest state in the country according to https://wallethub.com/edu/safest-states-to-live-in/4566.

This is the new normal unfortunately. During the next El Niño I doubt that VT will have more than 6 inches of snow on the ground at any point.

Wow. You fell off the deep end there. I hope you are wearing your floaties.

Generally speaking, you’re not allowed to bring it across state lines due to federal law, even though each state in question is a legal state. Most states have laws that it must be locked in your trunk (or another locked container / glove box) when you transport it, so I would just lock it in the trunk and obey all traffic laws.

Stowe is definitely a great option, Waterbury and waitsfield have good food as well. Burlington is a bit of a haul if it snows but it has the most indoor activities. If looking for a romantic trip, look at the spas around Stowe

Same :/ it feels like October out there

Yes .... your logic is flawless. ... just NOW suddenly.... when we have made it legal... NOW we are going to see the repercussions of people smoking it.

No one ever smoked it in mass quantities before it was legal, definitely not.

Weed smokers in their 70s who've been smoking their whole lives aren't a thing. Hippies in Vermont? Never!

And we obviously never spent a dime trying to track down those illegal marijuana grow ops and dealers before..

​

.oh wait....

There isn't some massive cancer movement coming from weed, they can't even quantify it on a hand eye coordination scale - hence having no real metric to determine a DUI - and states have blown millions of dollars on this repeatedly.

Your comment made me laugh at least.

I'd rather go hungry than eat at a place that donates money to people who want me dead.

Take a gander at the Mt. Washington snow stake depth, you’ll see that accumulation there hasn’t changed. It’s actually pretty fascinating to see.

It's clearly AI generated just like the 'god' of vermont post. I could type 100X words in front of 'Vermont' into one of those generators and make 100X posts just like this... it's not good and it's probably a direct knockoff of someone's actual artwork knowing how they train these things...

I must have missed where you've seen it before

can we not make this a thing please? one time cool, second time lame, third time gag me...

So really a blank slate!! I will say that, as someone who has spent a decent amount of time around florida, Vermont is about as polar opposite as you can get from florida and not just in terms of weather!

How much time between when you land and when you have to get to your hotel? and is the hotel in waitsfield (maybe Mad River or Sugarbush?) there’s a lot to do in Burlington by the airport, and a decent bit to do between the airport and waitsfield.

That is some good information thanks for the advice.

I’d say the most popular in that area are food & drink at Prohibition Pig, food & drink at the Pitcher Inn (upstairs or downstairs, and ice cream, shopping, tour, & flavor graveyard (depending on snow depth) at Ben and Jerry’s

Me? I’d skip Montpelier and Burlington. Venture north a bit further to Stowe (hard) Cider (flights), Spruce Peak Lodge for a ski resort vibe, Doc Ponds (burgers), Remarkable Things art store, Publix House (IPAs), Alchemist (IPA), Butler (breakfast), and Stowe Mercantile general store. Snow shoe, ski, build a snow man, make snow angels. Enjoy.

A flight, a car, and a hotel.

We just wanted to go to a place that was cold and far away from Florida.

I was just asking here to see if there are any well known things by residents. Like, in Orlando we have many different festivals and things to do, but they are mostly summer/spring activities.

Would be helpful to know what you already have planned. Things are pretty spread out here so if you’re already going somewhere there may be other things along the eay

yes, my bike rides are too warm. 40-50F and rainy is hardest to dress for
