Hello world. My brother and i are planning a trip to vermont over our
thanksgiving break to spend about a week sight seeing, going to places Phish
has been/grown up, and hopefully doing some backpacking/hiking/climb a
mountain or two. It is friday, and this list is so overly useful for this
kind of thing.....so......
Anyone who lives in or around, or has been through vermont (anywhere in
vermont), what do you recommend? We're looking to plan a trip involving
plenty of outdoors, small towns, microbreweries and wineries, cheap lodging
(hostels), some good places to eat (sandwich shops maybe?), and some sights
to see. I'm sure some of you have some awesome ideas, so lets hear them!
The trip will be made in a 1985 volvo 240DL in amazing shape, as sadly our
vanagon will not be close to making this trip (no vanagons will be harmed in
the making of this trip).
What would two college students with a love for adventure want to do in
vermont? The simple answer is "i've always wanted to go to Nectars in
Burlington". So, that accounts for about 5 hours of our week.....other than
that we're mostly out of ideas.
OK, you asked ---- Number one on the List since you obviously like Vanagons
- go visit John's Car Corner, Rte. 5, Westminster, VT, tell John I sent you
and report back ! Trust me !!!! Then while in the neighbourhood in and
around Townsend, VT is cool. Bald Mountain campground, state park just
up-stream on the West River, local cheese factory, don't remember the name but good
stuff, lots of good big mountain roads to test your Vanagon on too ! Enjoy !
Cheers,
