Hello Friends of the Road, How is everyone doing? It is still only Autumn, right? Or did I forget to change my calendar again? Winter came early here, but other than the cold, I don’t mind the early snow. I don’t usually care much for “stick season” and the snow has made it a bit…

Hello Friends of the Road, Are any of you planning on dressing up as a revolutionary war soldier for Halloween? I know it is is traditional to dress up as something scary, but why not something educational? As the leaves fall off the trees, things are changing fast and soon we’ll be in “stick season”….

Hello Friends of the Road,How are you all doing today? I know the weather hasn’t been as warm as we’d like, or as sunny as we’d like, but Summer is coming! Or at least the calendar says it is. For those who want to visit one of Vermont’s finest museums, I’ve got a great deal for…

Hello Friends of the Road,It’s already August. Hard to believe isn’t it? Soon schools will be back in session and history teachers everywhere will be talking about the Revolutionary War, and maybe, just maybe, they’ll be talking about the Crown Point Road. We all know how it played a role in the war, but most…

Hello Friends of the Road, Outside of Fort Christie, the rain continues to fall while the ice continues to thicken. I’m glad I don’t have to go anywhere tonight! My carriage doesn’t have studded wheels and my horses are on strike. I think they want more grain in their diet, but I can’t seem to…

Hello all, I have two matters to write about today. The first is about the hike on Sunday in Orwell. Twenty one people attended the hike and despite the light rain at the end, it was a great time. Leader Jim Rowe educated us all and led us to the main attraction, two ancient cellar…
