- random fact #1: there are two hundred and fifty one towns in vermont.
- random fact #2: the town of lewis, in the northeast kingdom, is the hardest town to find as it has no highways, definitive markers, or people. the town is home to moose, bear, fisher cats, and other wildlife.

What an awesome idea!
my grandparents were part of this and went to all 251 :) we joined a number of years ago... although we still have not explored vermont as much as we should have. hopefully this summer!
Fun! I love Vermont!
I grew up living right on the border (Canadian side), so we drove over almost weekly (usually to get Ben & Jerry's ice cream).
I'm totally going to check this out!
