Default Kudos to VT for offering Wifi at rest stops

And it's also pretty random to run into an AWer in the parking lot after pulling off to see if the WiFi sign was real.

Default Absolutely

Especially with all of the Wifi-enabled phones popping up these days.

Default Heh, I was wondering what area you lived in

I was visiting a friend in Vergennes/Addison, so got to drive along 107/100/125. Talk about an awesome drive!

Default Yeah, getting to vergennes is a killer drive from the east...

I've been known to zig zag the gaps from time to time..

Default Heading west, there is one turn on 125 which should be marked better, imo

The last speed limit sign you see going in is 50mph. 50mph is just fine for the entire stretch.... except for one turn. It's your first left after you go over the gap, iirc, immediately before the Middlebury Snowbowl. I came up to it doing 55-60, got a good look, thought "oh boy," and managed to make it through by picking a decent line and not panicking when all four tires were sliding. I don't think an Accord on all-seasons would have fared as well.

Really awesome drive though.

Default Hey, when you're in Vergennes, make sure to hit up Bar Antidote

It's on the town green above Kristof's (sp?). Great place.

Also, Black Sheep Bistro is a fantastic restaurant in downtown. Eat there if you can. Might need reservations.

We drive down and hit both about once a month.
