This commentary was submitted in November of 2007, just before our very first Community Forum:

"Just six years after that first visit I became a fulltime resident of Vermont along with my young family of three.

I was able to establish three different businesses and adapt my "outsider ways" to the rhythms of Vermont. At your invitation, forty-years later, I am happy to submit my "2¢ opinion" to the mix."
