What amazing sunrises and sunsets we've had this year! It has been bitter cold, and definitely not nearly enough snow, but the light this winter has been absolutely amazing! It's so funny, it's either a snowy winter and not that cold, or a bitter winter but there's...
I'm not sure why it took The Deer in the Shires so long to connect with White Doe Farm ha ha, but it finally happened! You meet so many wonderful people on instagram, and I recently had the opportunity to connect with the beautiful White Doe Farm, just a short jaunt...
We had a few big snows in November and early December but none lately so I'm so glad I got out in it while the gettin' was good! It's frustrating to be a nordic skier as opposed to downhill, most of the nordic ski mountains don't make snow so we're reliant on Mother...
In case you missed it on the 'gram! It was a super busy Fall this year, it was much better than last year for sure, and we moved into our new house at long last so I've been super busy with that but I still got around to all the special spots, here for you in one...
Stowe, VT Well Summer 2021 has been a bit of an improvement over 2020 I would say, we were so lucky in Vermont last summer that Covid really died down here so we got to do some in-state traveling and play a lot of golf. But the fear of the pandemic still was hanging...
I'll be honest. Spring is my least favorite season in Vermont. And I use the term "spring" loosely because we don't really have one. Yes, the blooms start, with the forsythia and then those smart enough to plant daffodil and tulip bulbs, and then everything else...
Vermont has two quiet seasons, also known as Stick Season and Mud Season. While these aren't official seasons that the Department of Tourism would recognize ha, because there's nothing nice about them, but they do have a beauty all their own. Stick season is in...
This crazy pandemic winter was the best winter of my life! I think I was the only one, but it was all thanks to nordic skiing. I meant to start skiing last year, but just never got around to it, so it wasn't the pandemic that made me want to ski, cross-country skis...
Sure the snow and bitter cold temps can be a challenge in winter, but I think the number one complaint of Vermonters would be the lack of sunshine. You can definitely turn up the heat, and snow can be gorgeous, especially when it has first fallen, but if there's no...
You might recall I did a post on winter running last year (you can read the full post here) and yet another winter is going by with me running every day and while most of my tips are the same, I have even more gear recs than last year that you guys might find helpful....
One real silver lining to this pandemic (and believe me, there aren't many lol!) is that I have spent more time in and around my town. I feel like sometimes you ignore what's right in front of you, but with less travel (even within the state of Vermont, I've been to...
It's the most wonderful time of the year! And though it will look a little different this year, Vermonters are decking their halls and trimming their trees! We're having a special event in our state called #vtlightstheway where our Governor has asked Vermonters to...
They call November in Vermont "The Quiet Season", and if you're a golfer like me, trust me, the Quiet Season is a big relief after rushing around to get in every minute on the course that you can in summer and fall. I was literally praying for dreary, cold rainy days...
As New England (and one of the nation's) most rural states, Vermont is not lacking in stunning rustic vistas to capture and enjoy. People think that Vermont is all small-town charm and there is that, but to me what makes Vermont such a special place is the miles and...
No one does small-town charm quite like Vermont! Vermont is known for it's quaint, cheerful tiny towns, many of which only have one or two country stores and of course, a post office and town green or common, but their sweetness and beauty makes them worth the trip,...
