1750. hmmm…

psst! psst!

hey! come close, look close—

it’s me, my friend

In the midst of our long dry heat spell, that little guy was keeping cool!  Cute, isn’t he. I wonder how that little frog found his way into the big planter of water? That’s a pretty high jump. Hmmm…

1749. the green mountains

cows graze in open fields

and in the distance looming blue

the green mountains 

In Vermont, everywhere you drive you see them: The Green Mountains—250 miles and more than 2 million acres of wildlife habitat, diverse forests, and popular trails. Something to remember.
