I spend a little time in Island Pond, the northeast corner. There are many trees there.

On the northwestern side, Burlington is actually a happening place. Lot of great restaurants and craft brewer on every corner.

I live at the end of a dead end street in the Farmington Valley. The guy across from me never sold his child hood home with over six acres of land. He now lives in upstate Vermont, but is a horder type and has pretty much kept everything his parents have ever bought (including six cars) and I don't want to see inside the house or the barns on the property. He is the nicest guy in the world but when he is around (every other weekend) if I try to throw something away he will take it. I picture all people from northern Vermont are that way. I can put you in touch with him if you are still interested.

Piecasso in Stowe has great pizza. Pie in the Sky is gone, it is now called The Bench. They still have pizza to go with a solid foodie menu, but Piecasso is way better.

Waterbury has great pizza at The Bluestone. Montpelier, Barre and Plainfield have Positive Pie, which is owned by same people that own Piecasso. Good pizza there too.

I don't live there all the time, but when I do, I prefer to eat pizza.

Actually American Flatbread in Burlington and Folinos (next to Fiddlehead Brewery in Shelburne are good places to get a pie.

Parker Pie in Glover. Get the Green Mountain Special: maple soaked spinach leaves, cheddar, Vermont cure bacon, apple slices, red onion, and garlic.

Wash it down with the Hill Farmstead on tap.

Gracie's moved and then moved again. Last month they announced they are closing for good. The Stowe restaurant scene has changed a lot, in general for the better. Lots of new places with a huge focus on beer and comfort food. I really enjoy our time there. It's a great town and seems to be constantly improving. They just added a cool little bowling alley with maybe 6 lanes. It is like bowling at the Ritz. Good food, beer, bar, huge tv's above the lanes with sports on etc. The new facilities at the mountain are amazing too. They will compete with any resort in the country.

Grew up on Lake Parker in West Glover for my first 30 summers. Went back a few years ago after my sister rebuilt the place and could not believe what they had turned the old country store into. Parker Pie was amazing. Not much up there but for us it was pretty much just fishing and relaxing with an occasional trip for antiques or to the various fairs. Plenty of skiing of course for the Winter folk.
