getting lost




One New Year's resolution was to explore Vermont more; i have a goal of settling there, and changing careers, later when the grrls are off to college.



The town i choose must meet the following criteria:

1. Be walkable/bikeable
2. Have a health club
3. Be socially & politically progressive
4 Have a coffee shop that serves Big Train (NOT Oregon) chai.

This past weekend i started with Woodstock. It meets numbers 1 and 3, but no good coffee shops. i forgot to ask about a health club. i stayed in a beautiful B&B (The Blue Horse Inn) where the owners were more than happy to answer my questions.



A big draw to Woodstock is the Queechee Gorge; one of the best hikes i've been on in years.

The best part about these trips? i travel alone- no need to interact, no itinerary, no schedule.

Heaven.
