Bier Hall at Trapps in Stowe is pretty darn good. It’s Austrian technically though 🤷🏻♂️

I've hunted deer, moose, small game, waterfowl, turkey in VT and have done my fair share of fishing.
Turkey is my favorite game to hunt because of how active the calling and "playing with the birds" is. Getting good at practicing calls, and hearing the responses based on the types of calls you give is always a lot of fun. Not to mention, turkey are pretty plentiful and there isn't nearly as much scouting involved as there is with deer.
Also, I grew up surfcasting and offshore saltwater fishing for stripers off Long Island but got really into fly fishing in the last 12 years that I've lived in VT. There is something quintessentially different about fly fishing compared to offshore. Even if I don't get a single bite, the rhythm of the moving water and flow of casting is much more zen than the comparatively high action of saltwater fishing. I prefer it of late.

He should have to personally pick up the dreck with his name on it all over literally every road I drive on when he inevitably loses.

Its 2022. Between Google Maps traffic updates, drivers knowing better, and trucking companies needing to do better route planning, there aren't any excuses. The dozens of signs on 89 and 100 are either not being payed attention to, or simply being ignored. Honestly, it doesn't affect my day-to-day at all as I'm not commuting through the notch or anything, but it just irks me that vtrans complains constantly about this issue but in the last 10+ years haven't done anything other than raise the fines. Almost makes you think the hassle of getting trucks out of the notch is less objectionable to the state than the money they receive from the fines levied.

It should have been an immediate license suspension years ago.

Every. Year. SMH. Are truck drivers really that clueless about the size of the road or are they really that arrogant to think they can ignore the litany of signs explicitly saying "you will get stuck" and "you will get fined?" Or is it possibly that company owners are demanding drivers take this route to attempt to save time/fuel? Are there any truck drivers who can weigh in on this and attempt to explain why this is a perennial issue?

I’ve heard of Starlink but never seen a convoy of satellites moving in such a pattern.
