Looking Ahead

The Vacation Edition is a favorite of ours, and not just because we get to go on vacation. It’s full of a lot of features by a lot of different writers whom you don’t usually encounter in our pages. Next week, for instance, we’ll have features on lobster-watching, the Old Christ Church in Bethel, a fantastic collection of chess sets, and another of clocks, and another of old lawnmowers. Here will be interviews with young people who attend one of the many Governor’s Institutes, and a glimpse of ladyslippers and polar bears. There will be a three-page summer dining guide, as well as a Top Ten guide of what a Vermonter misses when she moves to New York.
