http://www.erh.noaa.gov/btv/mountain/point/ You likely know about this, but I heard it on the news this morning and thought it was interesting.

http://www.necn.com/pages/landing?blockID=332374 Intriguing- Mad River Glen is partnering in this initiative to resurrect tourism (and skiing 15k peaks) in Afghanistan. Anyone have skis, poles, and skins to donate?

http://www.poststar.com/news/local/article_e77cd748-ba8b-11de-9ff0-001cc4c03286.html I am not sure if any of you come to VT via the Crown Point Bridge (NY), but if so, you will want to keep an eye on this. The bridge could be closed for several weeks.

I am ready to trade cars, and have narrowed down to 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid or Ford Escape hybrid. The family discount is too good to pass up on Ford- so I am not really interested in changing manufacturers. I have found nothing negative about the Fusion online. I have driven Fords for 30 years...

For those who have not thought about visiting the MRV in non-winter, here is a great NYTimes feature on the Valley you may enjoy. Check out the multi-media (slide show) for some nice pics. http://travel.nytimes.com/2009/06/26/travel/escapes/26Amer.html?hpw Enjoy!

So as you may remember, last year I scraped the creamy middle out of the oreo and replaced with toothpaste and punked my 16 y/o son. That nifty Alt/Ctrl/arrow down and arrow up PC trick in the Windows thread is a good one for coworkers. A few years ago, Mad River Glen wrote an article for the...

Does anyone carve pumpkins for Halloween? Do you a have favorite technique? Pics of your masterpiece(s)?

I was disturbed today to learn my 19 y/o college student has not yet registered to vote and didn't know which presidential candidate was Rep and which was Dem. She hadn't 'gotten around' to researching. The reality is as a (senior) paramedic student who is also working to support herself she...

Did anyone get 'tricked' or trick someone yesterday? I left an oreo on the kitchen counter for my 16 y/o, but I had replaced the middle with toothpaste. Got him. NPR had a great story on how the government was going to assure that we spent our upcoming 'rebates' on purchasing consumer goods...

I plan on doing some tenting this summer and am looking for a Camp Kitchen- the kind with the rack for the Coleman stove, a sink pocket and prep area-and some storage. New, they cost $150 or so. Does anyone have one or know of one stuck in someone's basement? pm if you do.

I am cleaning out the garage and found the bike rack I used on my Ford Taurus. I have a different vehicle now and don't need the rack. I used it on a Ford Focus wagon as well- so it can adjust to a wagon or sedan. I put 2 bikes on it with no problem. I don't want any $ for it- just want it out...

Has anyone used this site to find a pet or find a home for a pet? I am looking for a home for my dog and posted a profile on this website at the suggestion of my veterinarian. I got about 10 emails from people wanting to adopt my dog- but they all made me uncomfortable- like it was one person...

I thought this might spark interesting comments. Who do you prefer- Jon Stewart or Steven Colbert? I lean to Stewart- but both of them are great in their timing and differing delivery style.

My daughter graduated high school today which got me thinking.... and it is sort of two questions for old farts like me: 1. You have just graduated HS, and if you had it to do over again, would you take a different direction? (listen up Austin) 2. As an adult, did you grow up to become what you...

Do any of you non-MRV folks make the pilgrimage to the Warren 4th of July? Why or Why Not? Do you have any idea what I am referring to? Would be interested to see how many even know what I am talking about..... www.Warren4thofJuly.com
