I haven’t been back up there since I sold the place on the Lake. My Dad was a selectman in Derby back in ~2000 or so. Taking my kids up to see the herd next to the Palace was a highlight. I used to tell them they were Santa’s reindeer.
I got up last fall to lay my mom to rest down in Coventry, but we never got any further north than Lindsay Road, taking a look at the old homestead.
Lots of memories about that area. Most of them good. Some just really, really cold. LOL.
Memphremagog? Derby Pond? Willoby?
Beautiful areas!
We have a 65 y/o friend who participates in the Open Water Swim. I don’t know how he does it....but he always wins his age group and often beats the 20 y/o something competitors. :)
I don’t know if the cold this winter broke any records....but it sure seemed awfully cold to me. But we sure had a lot of -0*and more nights and days strung together.
