I have only visited once and I was very young. I’m afraid the show “Newhart” is what I think of as Vermont (and they presented an idyllic picture, at least in the opening sequence).
You have learned to enjoy the little things and take the time to do it. I’ve learned the lesson but haven’t been good at putting it into practice. Good on you!
Never watched the Bob Newhart show...as I get older and less mobile, I have a whole boatload of television things I have never taken the time to watch...Hill Street Blues, The Bob Newhart Show, Seinfeld...I just never watched any of them in the Seventies, and after I got out in the eighties, I wasn’t watching television.
I don’t watch now either, but for different reasons!
