above, february 16, about 3 months ago ...." if you dont like the weather in vermont, just wait a minute" is how the saying typically goes. now, if you wait three months from the photo above, youll really see some stuff happen ... so, here we are today on the EIGHTH day in a row of top down on the convertible weather, sunny skies and warmish temperatures. a week ago tuesday, it was news when, for the first time in 3 weeks, we had two days in a row with no measurable precipitation. now we havent had any in over a week ... go figure ... click the images for a taste of high springtime in vermont ...
