Burlington Vermont 2.0 | Summer 2022

Along with your screening of the walk by the Lake, this is another memorable 10 minutes for me. I still dream of some of these streets. Thank you for sharing it!

Once again, I've got to say, what a beautiful city, and such wonderful buildings and streets. Just gorgeous country up that way, but I guess you have to really like winter if you live there. Summers are a slice of heaven though.

Couldn't agree more! But yea, you better like the winters bc they are really really cold up here!

Vermont sucks, moved there to try it in 2007, left in 2015, the people are as cold as the winters a lot of very inward turned surface folks, no matter how welcoming and open i was, people mostly shunned me since i was not a new englander / vermonter but yet they like the claim they are open and welcoming,, hehehe not so much . Summers actually do get quite hot and humid, it does in fact get over 90 degrees plus humid; and so many of these people are strongly anti- air conditioner, look, just because summers are shorter there than in other regions does not mean we want to sit in the car or the house we pay big money for and be sweaty , hot and not enjoy and be comfortable ! noise, so many people with modified cars and bikes with very loud mufflers make it impossible to enjoy a sidewalk cafe, or the place you live many times as you cant hear anything but that plus its quit painful this and many other laws are not enforced. Also; very high cost of living, low paying jobs and very limited job market, the panhandlers and homeless -by-choice people is out of control, vermonters as a whole are a very passive-aggressive bunch, they bitch and moan but they wont make any efforts to change the things in life or in their community they are unhappy about, they also take a very '' you do you boo'' attitude when it comes to mental health and substance abuse, when by default these folks are literally not competent and are incapable or making the '' choice'' to go get help, nor can they navigate the system, even when half way lucid , the roads and streets are in horrid condition, they make excuses because of the extreme temperatures, ice and snow , ( yet in other regions that gets cold like colorado for example , we see so many areas where the roads and streets are well maintained, ben and jerrys is very overrated, its average ice cream but like everything else very over-priced, yet there is better ice creams out there, like cold stone creamery for example but those dont exist in vermont :-( so many houses are also very unkempt, i know they are old but so many other regions of the country have neighborhoods with old and even historic houses but are very well taken care of and the areas look groomed and clean. NOW all that being said, was all my experiences bad? no, i did have some good times and i did meet and know some very cool folks i was very glad to know and spend time with , but the majority of the people are very inward turned and very superficial.
