The flag is of convenience. It’s significantly cheaper for the company.

This really is a great analogy.

With a new born in the house this story has had me completely unnerved. News stories usually don’t get to me but this is heartbreaking for all involved. I can’t imagine what the father is going through.

It really is the best. It's right on main street so you can walk around at night and enjoy the town. There are some great restaurants and bars all around.
Cork as someone mentioned in another post is right down the street and has a great romantic dinner with great wine. There is the Stowe Public House which is a great little bar and bottle shop that we like to stop at for an afternoon drink. Harrison's is right across the street and is a really nice restaurant and bar. And the Green Mountain Inn itself has The Whip on site which is a good restaurant.
Then for a little more lively but also great atmosphere you have the Underbar down by the church, the Bench & Doc Ponds which both have great food and a fantastic beer list (both have Hill Farmstead on tap).
If you want to drive up the mountain road you have Matterhorn which is a great skier bar right at the food of the mountain that has some great sushi and Piecasso for good pizza.
If you guys are into beer highly suggest taking the 45 minute drive up to Hill Farmstead which is widely considered one of the best breweries in the world. I have some of their bottles in my basement that I've been saving for years.

This should be your place. Stowe is such an amazing town even if you don’t ski. If you go up, on the way home stop at the Prohibition Pig in Waterbury right by the highway. Some of the best BBQ you will ever have.

I love TH. Julius, Green, & Haze are some of my favorite beers but to me Hill Farmstead blows them out of the water. Their versatility and the ability to make every they make fantastic is crazy. I didn’t believe the HF hype until I made the trek and it was amazing.
