Congrats on your new venture. Sounds like you are really soaking it in, and enjoying your time! The maple syrup and snow thing is super interesting, as someone who cooks a lot that fascinates me. I imagine kids go crazy making that type of thing

Really cool about the snowmobile trails too

Ah, then as someone who appreciates food, another thing on that front about Vermont is that dairy and apples have figured prominently in Vermont‘s history. The dairy industry is struggling, but Cabot products are still prominent around the state. I get their butter, sour cream, and Vermont-style cheddar cheese (it’s a white cheddar) a lot. Apple trees grow wild all over the place. Apple pie is the state pie and there is the hilarious pie law.
