Hello Friends of the Road,

I’m writing this on Labor Day. I’m not one to sit still, so I’m being laborious as usual. But I’ve dialed it down a notch, so I don’t feel too guilty. I’ve spent the past couple days working on a stone stairway in my backyard. It gives me deep appreciation for masons and all those stonewall builders. I’ve learned some tricks of the trade during my sweat filled bug bite sessions. I’ve also learned that I should stick to my day job. I know my back will thank me for that intent. 

The daylight hours are now quickly shifting, but fret not, there is still plenty of good weather to get out to hike, explore and seek out the roadside markers. I feel this is a nicer time generally because it is cooler and less bugs. 

Recently, there has been exciting exploration on the route of the Hubbardton Military Road. Don’t forget that fun little branch road and if you haven’t read the Wheeler book recently, it is time to dust it off. I don’t know about you, but every time I read it, I learn something new. I will tell the tale about the exploration in a future newsletter. 
We recently ordered a new batch of embroidered CPRA hats. They look good and will be offered in next years mailing. But if you want one prior, attend one of the remaining outings this year or email me your request.

Last month Jim Rowe led a group on a car tour from Orwell to Hubbardton. I’ve attached copies of the handouts for all of you. 

Our President, Barry Griffith has been hard at work preparing for the upcoming outing. We’d like to make it clear that this will not be and easy stroll down the side of a town road. This is a true hike – not for everybody. The visit requires an off trail “bushwhack” through the woods, over uneven and sometimes wet terrain. It is somewhat less than a mile to the site, and should take under an hour to get there. Uphill on the way in; downhill on the way back. We hope that those who are ready, willing and able will enjoy the opportunity to inspect the site. Here is the official write up for the outing on September 11th: There are a number of encampment sites along the Crown Point Road which were used by those traveling between southern New England and Lake Champlain. This Saturday local historian Tom Ellis will lead us on an examination of one such site on his property in the southeast corner of the Town of Plymouth. Meet at 10 AM at the Tyson Community Church parking lot on Route 100. Wear hiking shoes, bring water and a lunch. For more info, call Barry at (802) 492-3573. One last bit of information is about the current road conditions. Route 100 is being worked on from Route 4 south to about Farm & Wilderness / Woodard Reservoir. Traffic being detoured over 100A.  Folks coming through Rutland should perhaps take Route 103. 


I will now bid you adieu. Enjoy the day, and until we meet again…
