Leaf Peeping has Begun !

    Yesterday I had occasion to drive 230 miles, to the eastern side of the state, up to the Canadian border, and back home. As the crow flies that would be 150 miles; but then, I guess, it would not be Vermont. I live in the most densely populated area of the state (about 43,000), on the edge of Lake Champlain, and our weather is not as alpine as the rest (it’s not uncommon for me, like yesterday, to be driving up a ridge-line and the elevation gives my ears a pop). So, a trip like yesterday’s unmasked the foliage event accelerated for me: it has begun!
   There are foliage maps (which presumably are scientific averages), and other methods for recommendations; yet what you really want to pay attention to is “the Cross State Travel Map” (https://accd.vermont.gov/covid-19/restart/cross-state-travel). Yes, if you are able, come enjoy Leaf Peeping Season! And just know, that this year, planning includes this extra wrinkle.
   The images posted were taken yesterday, and the next five and a half weeks, as stated, have begun. See if you can make it to the northern half of the state this time for a different spin on awesome.

It's Been Springie !

09 May, 2021

Wow! Time has slipped by! Mea culpa – between the Blur-day of the pandemic, a physical move for the company, and a significant flurry of human doings – and not the least how spring shows up here in Vermont (winter, fool's spring, second winter, spring of deception, third winter, mud season...actual spring), we had significant snow twice in April. It still gets chilly. Nonetheless, here we are, and it truly seems like it really is spring now. There is an explosion of blossoms all around, trees have been budding for a few weeks now. In celebration of Spring we have added a new item: our Spring / Summer Picnic / Beach Blanket (as distinct from our Autumn / Winter Ultra Plush Blanket – entirely different utility). You will look back on this new item years from now, I am sure, grateful that you acquired it. It simply solves ostensibly every issue one could have with a picnic or beach blanket! There are, indeed, other items in the works…remember to share us with family and friends…word of mouth is everything to us.

Autumn to Winter

24 Nov, 2020

We are transitioning from autumn to winter and our selections are reflecting that shift of season. We have added a significant child and youth array: two children’s books, and a teddy bear, we have placed emphasis on our signature holiday hanging ornament, and we have added a tuque and scarf set. Humbly, all of stellar quality with serious attention to detail (the bear has a lifetime warranty!). And as of last week, we have featured in Stratton Magazine, with a major ad buy (for us) in Vermont Magazine (ad shown here). Remember, leaves go with everything and everyone loves leaves, so for the difficult to buy for our quality offerings should complete any such challenge.
