Heart of Vermont

VtMtHungerGlades.jpg
.....The "look" into White River Valley below from high above Cobble House Inn,
over our favorite swimming hole locals call "the glades", to Hunger Mountain's
north slopes ablaze in autumn's color. "Heart of Vermont " has two lane Rt107
beside a mostly northeastward tumbling of the White River. Its zigzag valley
begins at Rt100 in Stockbridge near where the Tweed flowing north from the
Killington mass joins the White and ends at Eaton's Pancake House at Rt14.
17 miles, after collecting the First and Second Branches of the White River,
the flow turns a southerly right and widened, drifts along between Rt14 and
where USA89 crosses high above the White River into Sharon, Vermont.

The angler wading the shallows, drifting a fly into the deep pool below and
this "look" upstream towards the "gladesare both off water-worn granite outcroppings
that remember a dam, woolen, then later button factories on these rocks.

This is the "look' upriver to "the glades from Gaysville. A great swimming hole
with locals and summer folk's called "Twin Bridges". Its granite ledge
leaning over the pool's been named "Lion Head". Diving from the lion's nose is only
less challenging than the run and leap needed to clear it from the lion's brow.
Atop of Lion's Head, I'd use drips from my suit after dives as water for my "looks"

I'd climb back up using hand and toe holds in the left hand "look". Sit myself
where I had left my watercolors on what would be the brow of the lion and
catch the light dancing in the great deep eddy to the left and right below.

Hi Bill,
I was just doing a search for old Boston Tea Party stuff and Google-ing names connected with the past and found your blog. Ironic that just today, I picked up some prints from the lab, some of which are of Tara and me on the back porch at Ashford St, playing "Store".

I think of all of you from time to time and hope that all is well. Drop me an email sometime.

In the meantime, take care,
Gwyneth Thomas

Want to start your private office arms race right now?

I just got my own USB rocket launcher :-) Awsome thing.

Plug into your computer and you got a remote controlled office missile launcher with 360 degrees horizontal and 45 degree vertival rotation with a range of more than 6 meters - which gives you a coverage of 113 square meters round your workplace.
You can get the gadget here: http://tinyurl.com/2qul3c

Check out the video they have on the page.

I’ve got an Amazon gift certificate burning holes in my pocket,
and I want to get the most bang for my buck.

Enter the Secret Amazon Web Pages:

http://tinyurl.com/38sojf

This is where you’re going to find the "latest sales, rebates, and limited-time offers" from
Amazon, and you can score some pretty deep discounts if you’re a savvy shopper.

Next, there’s the special Sale link. This is open every Friday, and ONLY on Fridays.

You can find the same good discounts here as you would in hidden Deals, although some
Fridays you can really get lucky and make off like an Amazon bandit - I’ve seen discounts
there as low as 75% off sticker price.

Hi I'm Sonja,

As you may have guessed, I am mad about bargains.
I am a wife, a mother and I have run my own recruitment business for over twenty years.
I make my living by giving the best value for money so when I spend it I expect to get the same.

I love quality items, five star cruises and generally the good things in life and I have found
that I can afford more of them if I get them at bargain prices.

This Blog http://bargains-hunter.blogspot.com is for bargain hunters to share information
so we can all get the best value for our hard-earned money.

Cheers

Sonja
