STICK SEASON

Aided by wind and cooler temperatures, without doubt, what Vermonters call “stick season” is fast approaching, that stretch between when the trees have lost their leaves and the first snow.autumn-foliage-sugar-maples-copyright-kim-smith

More Good Luck with Homeaway.com

Some of you may remember the awesome houseboat that I rented back in August…which, by the way, a friend just rented and loved as much as we did.  Well, this past weekend I rented an oceanfront home directly on York Beach in Maine…that gazed across at Nubble Light.  The house was clean, bright, nautical, and perfect for our group of 10 friends.

It was close enough that some peeps could just drive up for one of the two nights….and I even was able to jet home on Saturday to catch Thatcher’s hockey game at Pingree Rink in Hamilton and then turn around and head back up again.

Granted, it is pretty much off-season, but we each only paid $65 per night. The Kittery outlets were only minutes away….as was downtown Portsmouth….and local restaurants. We opted to bring lots of food, snacks, and beverages up with us and just sat and laughed (and laughed) in the living room both nights. During the day there was lots of leaf peeping, beach walking, sightseeing, photo taking, and shopping.

If you’re looking for a getaway, I highly recommend both homeaway.com and vrbo.com

This is the listing that we just rented…. in case you are interested.
