I love Vermont because of her hills and valleys, her scenery and invigorating climate, but most of all because of her indomitable people.

When you're home or you're working, your mind just isn't allowed to just roll on like it does when you're watching the scenery go by.

A fast moving car is the only place where you're legally allowed to not deal with your problems. It's enforced meditation and this is good.
