Not even one today. I rarely see them anymore. A few years ago I’d see at least one every trip between 89 and Mass border. Multiple on a Sunday with all the skiers headed home. I’ve made that trek twice a week for a decade now. I’ve noticed similar in CT. The Mass Staties haven’t let up though. They’re still always out, multiple every trip.

Joy Wah is consistently reliable, thoroughly decent Chinese food. That's slightly above the bar for this state.

I drive to White River Junction every few weeks to grab a sandwich at Phnom Penh. It's also the only decent pho I've found in this part of the state.

Stop it, just stop it.... The fact that you're fortunate enough to ask this question answers it.. VT is welcoming to everyone who shares basic values.

Now, let's get back to pressing issues, lack of housing, sky-high living expenses with a lackluster economy?

Nah, forget it, you're right. Tell me more about how I can better spend my time making VT more welcoming....

I know exactly one person who became a VT State Trooper and I also know exactly one person who assaulted someone while in college for their criminal justice degree so they could become… a VT State Trooper. Interesting that the police didn’t believe his victim and then he became one… 🤔

Interestingly, the only other thing I know about VT state troopers is they steal expensive items from their evidence lockup.

Oooh! I got another one, they’ve completely stopped even attempting to enforce traffic laws. Spent a few hours on 91 just today with all our weekend visitors heading south and didn’t see one single VT cop along the way. It would of been easy pickings out there, too.
