Hey! I caught that r/NewToVermont exists and checked it out, but the Visiting Vermont flair also was available. If this kinda question truly is inappropriate here, I'm down to relocate it.

I did mean that I'm being realistic — if it's not the place to be during that month of the year, so be it, but I'm not really seeking out beautiful weather. We're mountainless down here, so y'all do have that going for you year-round! Thanks for the input — I appreciate it.

You could look for a place in Middlesex. Close enough to the Montpelier train station to bike, and you would find good restaurants in Montpelier. Just be mindful that you are aiming to visit during mud season, which may make for a harrowing ride if you are using dirt roads.

Hello.

> I'm seeking any help with concocting this gift.

There is a NewToVermont sub.

> Where's somewhere 11/10 excellent to visit mid-April?

Not Vermont. Vermont is dreary and ugly in mid April.

> I'm looking for daytime nature sights that take your breath away

Not in mid April.

> bike the rest of the way

Snow is not uncommon here in April.

> I'm being realistic

Not really.

> if it's gonna be a miserable ride, I don't mind knowing!

Unpredictable. Could be great could be awfully muddy.

> looking for a pretty ride

It will be dreary. Things don’t pretty up here til about June 1st but then black flies are brutal til about Father’s Day.

> we both just love taking the train

That’s cool. Not a lot of train stops I’m aware of

> Stargazing locations near-ish somewhere good for dinner. I know having food options/businesses available conflicts with low light pollution, though.

Yup.

> I love a good scheme.

Not sounding good though.

Hilariously enough, this is exactly what the eviction control measure is meant to remedy! The landlord is literally putting up a sign to say, "I want to always be able to evict my tenants if they start a fight with me", and daring the tenants to start shit.

100%. Reddit and the general public think "If they aren't talking, they're hiding something and must be guilty".

You know what happens to innocent people who talk? They go to jail, because they accidentally incriminate themselves.

Honestly people like the OP who criticize Balint for not talking are part of the reason so many innocent people go to jail. Common tactic of cops to say things like "Well, if you won't answer my questions, that'll make you look guilty." And then ask you a question like

"Do you remember where you got these drugs, yes or no?"

"No"

"So you admit these are your drugs".

If you are involved in any form of legal proceeding, do not talk, and do not like redditors like the OP guilt you into falsely incriminating yourself.

No it’s not, the property owner is displaying his beliefs, on his property. You don’t go into an Uber and adjust all the seats, change the bumper stickers and control the volume do you? Why as a society have we strayed so far from the facts, and started thinking so emotionally. Detachment from reality is applauded now.
