I just want them to offer the "Vermont Strong" license plates for sale from the DMV. I'm fine with my fake one from Ebay, but I would happily pay the state for a real one if they were to offer them again. It feels like such an easy way for them to increase some revenue for the state.

VT State Parks are all awesome, and there is a lot of variety all around.

Woods Island is a cool spot because of how few sites there are and how far apart they are from each other. It does require you to get out to the island and bring all your gear, including water, but there are private companies that will bring you out on a pontoon for pretty cheap.

Some of the parks have built cabins, which are super cozy and are a lot easier than tenting it.

Do you have an area of Vermont you want to be near? Will you be looking to get out on the water, or go for a hike?

Bernie won't save you, even if he decided to run for governor or something (which he'd probably win in a landslide if he wanted to) a senator is moreso focused in ensuring state's interests are reflected in federal policy, which has much less effect on you than you'd expect day to day. Plus the man is just so old, he needs to retire, probably couldn't handle the workload of a state job at his age.
