Some of my picking friends here in Tokyo also have a home in Vermont. Seems like a nice place if you can deal with the snow. anyone here a Vermont person?

Soundhound lives in Vermont. I lived there from '77 to '91, plus most summers while I was growing up.

You are right, Vermont is a great place to live. Yes, you need to adjust to the climate, but it is not as harsh as it might seem at first.

Are y'all kidding? Thanks to global warming we expect that the climate here will be similar to Miami in a year or 2.

Right now it is fall foliage time... definitely worth a view for any who haven't seen it.

I am curious though... where in Vermont do Jjapanese choose to live?

Actually, I was born in Connecticut, my family has roots in New England to the 18th Century at least...I need a summer home, to get out of Tokyo.
