Day Trip comment: roads need checking for various reasons

Day trip through the region report reminds writer of trips in Vermont, and of why the bear went over the mountain.

From Sharon Whitehurst

I always enjoy the words and photos that chronicle the road trips. My Dad served as road commissioner in the small Vermont town where I grew up, and our usual outings were to go along when he drove the dirt roads evenings after work to see what needed fixing.

Jim and I enjoy puttering off to explore where a road leads -- a sort of 'bear went over the mountain' mindset!



Our fall will be taken up with house-building -- one last home, the 'retirement home' -- less than 5 miles up the ridge from the Amish farm we've enjoyed for several years.

We're hoping for a long mild autumn to see us under the new roof!

Sharon, thank you for writing and we wish you a long, mild autumn for home building! There are many of us in the 'bear went over the mountain society'. Good friends Trilby Vance and Maxine Walker are among those who have mentioned that Day Trips are favorites of their's as well. As Dale and Roy would have sung, "Happy Trails..." - Linda Waggener
