Twig Season in full bloom at Killington

Twig Season in full bloom at Killington

It's one of those quiet Saturdays in Killington after the fall foliage has dropped from the trees, but before the winter season starts in earnest. The excitement of the resort being open for skiing and riding last weekend, has given way to what Mary and I call "Twig Season". Each year at this time, a certain apprehension sets in to the resort. The beauty of the Vermont landscape in summer has given way to a dull grey, devoid of all apparent life. Of course, the situation will completely reverse itself as soon as the region is blanketed in snow. When that happens, everything will look fresh and pure. But until then, we basically have to make the best of the surroundings while making sure that everything is ready for the snow that we know will be coming in the near future.

Speaking of getting ready for winter, at the inn we have immediate openings for wait-staff to work in our dining room for dinner service in the evening. Both full and part time positions are available. If you are interested, you can contact the Birch Ridge Inn at 802-422-4293 for further details. Let us know you found out about us on the blog.
