Testing the Waters of Vermont's 'New Normal'
By Carolyn Fox
Summer festivals are slowly appearing on the calendar, retail shoppers have resumed leisurely browsing, diners are more comfortable inside restaurants, and out-of-state tourists are back in our midst.
Try outdoor yoga in a Quechee forest canopy or al fresco films in a White River Junction parking lot. Dine pond-side in Ferrisburgh or by a chef's kitchen garden in Middletown Springs. Craving a getaway? Keep it in-state with a road trip to Rutland, an art adventure in Windsor or an overnight at Rudyard Kipling's historic Dummerston home. This issue dips a toe into our so-called "new normal."
