Kingdom folks: "it's just another weekend". Seriously it's NEK Vermont... Some -40 wind-chill for a day or two is cold but not brace yourself for end times cold. It's not Texas or the Champlain valley. We're good.

But why would you ever buy a Costco pizza? The hotdogs are RIGHT THERE!

Buzzy internet food speak. If anything "Vermont Style" would be a mediocre pie that you order because of a lack of better options.

All salaries are low here. It used to be justified by the lower cost of living. When I started out as an engineer in Vermont ~12 years ago my starting salary was almost $30k less than another offer in NYC. Cost of living (and quality of life) easily justified the the lower salary job. Not so much anymore.

Burke Mountain's training slope is one of the steepest in the world and has produced more Olympic ski talent than any other mountain in the world. Great skiers come to Burke because it's the place to ski if you want to be the best.

Affordable doesn't exist here anymore because of people moving here.
Edit: if you need convenient access to modern amenities like international airports, gas stations or decent pizza Vermont is not the right place for you.

The first one I saw up close was caught in a have a heart trap while we were trying to relocate some skunks... moving the cage with a very upset Fischer was about 1000 times more frightening than the stink bomb alternative we were aiming for.

Foxes mature quickly, but will stay with their mom and hunt as a team for 5-6 months after reaching maturity. It's how they learn to hunt and survive outside the den. Communication with other foxes is their primary reason for vocalizing.

Fox would be my next bet then. They have a range of vocalizations.

Fischer cats can make some demon goose noises when they get together.

You should probably sell it and stop hoarding housing in a state with a housing crisis. You are the problem.

I assure you that the tens of thousands of engineers who keep the power on daily have run the numbers more than once on this.

Big ops were boiling on new years this year. Small ops probably weren't ready to roll yet and/or didn't get enough sap to boil.
Edit: short answer: if it's below freezing at night and above freezing during the day sap will run. Trees don't have calendars.

Right? What ever happened to Vermonters being stoic about the weather? Everyone runs on here everytime it's not room temperature and dry out to try and grab cheap internet points from the rest of the transplants I guess. Used to be we laughed at people getting this worked up about a little weather.
