Mary on the deck at Bear Mountain

I guess it's a good thing! Summer has arrived this week to Killington.

The cold and wet weather that has been hanging tough at Killington for the last couple of months appears to have been broken. In its place, we have seen warm (low 80's) and damp (humidity around 70%) conditions overtake the area. While I tend to enjoy the cool weather, I live in Vermont after all, the last few warm days have been glorious.

This afternoon Mary and I took advantage of the weather to venture out on the mountain. We packed a lunch and wound up on the deck over at the Bear Mountain Base Lodge. Bear Mountain is very secluded this time of year, being on the "other side" of the resort. We had the deck to ourselves except for some barn swallows, and the roar of streams cascading down the mountain side. It was great to be outside!

Where ever you may be this weekend, get outside... and don't forget your sunscreen!
