Weekend Itinerary 

Did you know our love story is basically a Hallmark movie? Picture this:&nbsp; It’s 2018, Both Ryan and Kayla work at the local Nordic ski center in Ripton Vermont. She works inside, he works outside.&nbsp; Ryan comes to hang out with Kayla at the desk at the end of the day.&nbsp; Kayla makes excuses to go up to the office when he’s inside for a break from snowmaking. Sometimes Ryan has already lit the fire at the Center by the time Kayla gets to work to do just that. What a dreamboat. Kayla’s heart flutters a bit when she has to call him on the radio to report the humidity for snowmaking. Ryan thinks to himself - dang, she is cute, joyful, goofy to the nth degree, and out of my league.&nbsp;&nbsp; Kayla thinks to herself: dang,&nbsp;he is the cute, scruffy, capable-of-all-the-things man I’ve dreamed about.&nbsp; Their coworkers make blatant attempts to get them thrown together at work:Ryan, why don’t you and Kayla go check out so-and-so trail for the Trail Report.Kayla, why don’t you join Ryan while he’s grooming Hobbit trail so you can get some pics for Instagram. Transparent as all heck, I’m tellin’ ya.&nbsp; On their first date they went to Ryan’s house and made mac &amp; cheese. And here we are seven years later.

Did you plant your seed paper yet?!

Plant the seed paper under 1/8" of soil, in a container or garden bed. Water thoroughly, and keep moist during germination to grow some fabulous flowers!

Happy days, let's find you a place to stay! Now, early September is the beginning of the busy season in Vermont. That being said, we recommend booking your accommodations sooner rather than later! We have assembled a smattering of accommodation options at various price points. Some are listed because we have a personal connection, and they are all delightful small businesses, which is quite important to us. There are, of course, many other options, this is just a starting point. We are holding rooms at Frost Mountain Cabins, but otherwise reservations at local b&amp;bs and inns will be on a first come first serve basis along with the rest of VT visitors. Go prudently! &lt;3
