A cool, electricbicycle thatpasses the‘green’ test

By Lou [email protected]

Tim Mathewson, owner and master mechanic of LittleCity Cycles in Vergennes, believes there’s no such thingas a bad bike. The bike entrepreneur—a self-describedtwo-wheel prophet—has not only sold traditional bicy-cles to residents of Addison County, and saved a few oldbicycles from the scrap heap; he has also helped bringnew bike technologies to Addison County’s road and off-road spoked warriors.

In addition to his retail bike shop, Mathewson sportsa heart of gold when it comes to helping disadvantagedpeople utilize bikes to get ahead in life. He has been giv-ing away bicycles to disadvantaged peoples living bothinside and outside the USA for several years.

“I have a section out back of what I call our Mexicanbikes,” Mathewson said. “We receive free donations ofvarious bikes. Then our volunteers fix them up. Whenthey are road worthy, we give them to new immigrantsin Addison County—at no cost.”

When he’s not helping or inspiring people to ride theirtraditional pedal bikes more, Mathewson is championingnovel ways to expand bicycle usage in the 21st century.His latest product offering is Little City Cycles’ hybridNor ’Easter Electric All-Terrain Bike—Vermont’s veryown utility bike.

With a six-hour battery charge, the Nor-Easter may notbe as fast as a Vespa motor scooter but it’s a whole lotcheaper and greener to operate.

“This electric bike is very new. There’s really nothinglike it in the world,” Mathewson said. “This is what I callthe pickup truck of the bike world. You can take it in thebackwoods. This baby can go anywhere. Even hunterscan use it and bring out a deer on the back.”

Small City Market, a long-time commercial anchor indowntown Vergennes, is oneof those Vermonty destina-tions that has a customerbase that isn’t afraid to drivethe extra mile for specialgoodies not found else-where—such as New York-style brick oven pizza anddistinctive Vermont Coffeeofferings. The market, whichbroke ground on a spiffynew market and Mobil gaso-line service at 2 S. Water St.back in May, has reopened

Part 1:Two local writers have as-

sumed the mantle of fiction’smost famous crime-fightingduo—Sherlock Holmes andDr. John Watson. The twowomen are hunting down 75-year-old leads in the hopes ofpartially untangling Ver-mont’s most gruesome triplemurder. The pair are investi-gating the still unsolvedmurder case that first cameto light along a lonely EastMiddlebury road May 15,1935.

Roxanna Emilo of Middle-bury and Kathy Brande ofBristol are busy researchingand plotting their version ofMiddlebury’s infamous mur-der-mystery. Their eight-year-long investigation hasprovided a realistic basis fora novel, now in the works,that will focus on the localtrue-crime story.

Titled “If These WoodsCould Talk”, Emilo andBrandt’s book project is alsobeing developed with an eyefor the movie screen.

“I became friends withRoxanna a few years back,”said Brande,” and one day I

was visiting her at her place.She happened to mention thisold murder story—the vic-tims were shot in the headand their remains had beenfound on (the old LutherRoscoe) property near her

Many citizens in Vermontassume that we have statelaws to govern massagetherapy. These folks will besurprised to learn that,while their personal thera-pist is no doubt excellent,poorly trained or unskilledpractitioners in our statepose the risk of potentiallyharming clients. State licen-sure will allow for agencyoversight of massage profes-sionals. Without state licen-sure there is no avenue forthe public to file a complaintwhen there is a problem.

In light of this situation,independent massage thera-pists and members of theVermont Chapter of theAmerican Massage TherapyAssociation (AMTA-Vt.),have networked with manyother interested profession-als to seek state licensure forthe massage therapy profes-sion. In Vermont, it is neces-sary to take a first stepknown as the Sunrise Appli-cation Process. This processdetermines if there is a needto regulate a new profession.

The AMTA-VermontChapter has supported thesubmission of the applica-tion for “Preliminary Sun-rise Review Assessment” tothe Vermont Secretary ofStates’ Office of ProfessionalRegulation. AMTA National

and our state chapter advo-cate fair and consistent li-censing of massage therapyin every state.

The Office of ProfessionalRegulation will hold a pub-lic hearing on the applica-tion Friday, Oct. 29, at 9 a.m.

Part 5:A group of amateur researchers are searching the north woods

of Vermont and New York for a strange creature long thought tobe extinct—known in folklore as Bigfoot or Sasquatch. In theNorth Country of New York, New England and Quebec, the crea-ture is known by its regional Indian name, correctly spelled We-juk (wee-juck).

Bigfoot or Wejuk sightings are the focus of the NorthernSasquatch Research Society based in Hudson Falls, N.Y. Its mem-bers include Frank Siecienski of Hubbardton, Brian Gosselin ofWhitehall, Cliff South of South Glens Falls, and John Pearson andBill Brann of Glens Falls.

Former Whitehall police officer Brian Gosselin was an eyewit-ness to a now famous August 1976 Wejuk incident on Abair Roadin Hampton, N.Y., near the Vermont state line, across from FairHaven.

Gosselin has been featured on several television documentariesabout Bigfoot or Wejuk.

Bigfoot researchers around the word know about the famoussighting of a creature, by former police officer Brian Gosselin andothers, in August 1976 in the Whitehall, N.Y. area. Bill Brann ofNSRS continues our discussion.

L.V. I understand a forensic artist sketched the creature described byBrian Gosselin and the others in 1976?

Brann: Artist Sue Ellis drew a picture based on the descriptions.

It walked with a slouch, bent at the shoulder area, but it walkedupright. Brian pointed out the buttocks, Sue indicated that in thedrawing. When I asked the eyewitnesses if the drawing looks likewhat they saw, they said ‘it does and it doesn’t’. They were preciseabout that. It does have features they saw but it isn’t exact. It’s anartist’s conceptionbased on descriptions. I photographed Brian andPaul Gosselin at the (Abair Road) site a few days after the incident.

L.V. I am surprsied to learn that you got involved very early in thiswell-known case.

Brann: Oh, definitely. I did all the original investigation in White-hall. In fact, it’s still going on today. But let me say that we did areeanctment later on. We had Brian go out to do the reeanctment.What he forgot to tell you (in Part 4) is that he knelt down with hisarm extended through the open windown with a .357 service re-volver cocked, ready to fire if he had to. So we have a photo of thereeanctment at the exact spot.

L.V.: You have an interesting topographic map on the wall. Can youtell us about it?

Brann: This map shows all the reported Wejuk sightings in NewYork to the Vermont border. It took a long time to put this togeth-er. There’s a pattern to Wejuk. We do know that fall is probably themost predominant time when you see this thing, but not always. Itcomes down from up around the Fort Ticonderoga area, downalong Lake George, over toward Black Mountain. It moves over toWhitehall and along the Poultney River. On our map—which wedo not want you to photograph—red dots represent sightings andyellow dots represent footprints, blue dots represent vocalizations,and green dots indicate objects thrown—things like rocks, boul-ders. We have many stories along the Poultney River of objects

thrown. This map is a drop in the bucket; there’s much more thanthis. We’ve spent 34 years researching this.

L.V.: What about creature footprints that people still report seeing insandbars along the Poultney River?

Brann: Our group has gone to the Poultney River with Paul Gos-selin and internationally known nature photographer Russ Kennyto search for footprints. We flew over the area in a Piper Cub, too.We can swear to you—trying to leave a footprint in the soil there islike trying to leave a footprint in hard concrete. But we have pho-tos showing a footprint Brian Gosselin found in 1976, a few daysafter the Abair Road incident. The same footprint has been foundin sandbars along the river by Glen LaRose, another Whitehall po-lice officer. He made a good cast that was 19 inches long with a fourinch heel. The photos and the casts themselves show we have aheavy animal. Some reports indicate it weighs 700 pounds plus. Ishould mention that we found a limestone cave along the PoultneyRiver near the footprint. There was an old date, from the 1800s,carved in the rock. It looked too small to be used by an animal thesize of what we’re talking about.

To be continued.

All sighting infor-mation is kept strictly confidential.

The Wejuk Files: In search of Bigfoot

While most astronomy textbooks since the 1960s re-port that the Moon is bone dry, there is some recentevidence that may force future revisions. Last year, a

team of researchers led by Alberto Saal of Brown University andErik Hauri of the Carnegie Institution reexamined small, greenvolcanic glass beads collected by Apollo astronauts back in 1971and 1972.

Using a new, advanced microprobe technique, the researcherswere astonished to discover that the extraterrestrial glass beadscontained as much as 46 parts per million of lunar water. That’sfar more water than anyone ever imagined could be locked upinside “bone dry” moonrocks. When Saal and Hauri extrapolat-ed the calculations back in time, they found that the Moon’s inte-rior may have held as much as 750 ppm of water.

“This suggests the very intriguing possibility that the Moon'sinterior might have contained just as much water as the Earth’smantle,” Hauri told reporters last year.

Clues left by the glass beads have cast a shadow on the cur-rent, popular explanation for lunar origin, the so-called BigWhack Theory.

According to this theory, the early Earth was smacked by aMars-sized protoplanet 4.5 billion years ago; the event spewed avast ring of molten crust into space that quickly coalesced, in or-bit, to form the Moon.

And here’s the rub: a Big Whack impact would have vapor-ized volatile materials — especially water. Yet the glass-beadgame played by Saal and Hauri reveals that lots more water wasleft behind after the Moon formed.

The discovery of “hidden” water in lunar glass — and recentstudies showing even more water locked up inside the Moon asice — calls to mind a discarded theory proposed by the late J.J.Gilvarry back in the 1950s.

Gilvarry was an astrophysicist with the National Academy ofSciences and the RAND Corporation. He calculated that theMoon, with a heritage clearly linked to Earth, would have out-gassed enough water to fill seas to a depth of 2 km (1.2 miles).The idea of a primordial wet Moon was popular in the early 20thcentury. But at the dawn of the Space Age, Gilvarry was one ofthe few wet-Moon holdouts.

Gilvarry’s calculations regarding the behavior of water and at-mospheric gases on the Moon were made with great care—they

were based upon Sir JamesJeans’ calculations of theamount of time it takes a plan-et’s atmosphere to escape intospace.

Gilvarry demonstrated thatour natural satellite could havesupported an Earthlike atmos-phere and surface water formillions of years — that’s shortby Earth’s atmospheric and hy-drospheric timeline, but stilllong enough to be interesting.When astronomers today saythe Moon is too small to havesupported either an atmosphere or liquid water, they may needto review the math. According to Gilvarry’s data, our Moon, adwarf planet of sorts, could have retained an appreciable atmos-phere long enough for it to act as a “lid” on surface water.

An intriguing footnote: Gilvarry employed Baldwin’s curve ofcrater depth-diameter values alongside U.S. Atomic EnergyCommission crater data gleaned from the “Ivy Mike” fusion-de-vice test in the Marshall Islands in 1952. Why? Well, while mostof the Moon’s highland craters fit Baldwin’s depth-diametercurve for impact craters formed on land, the shallow slope lunarmaria (the so-called “lunar seas”) matched Baldwin’s depth-di-ameter curve of a typical impact crater formed in deep water. Ac-cording to Gilvarry, the maria profiles looked a lot like the un-derwater crater that marks ground zero of the “Ivy Mike” shot.(The explosion vaporized the Marshall Islands atoll of Elugelaband left behind a 6,240 feet wide submarine crater.)

Gilvarry might have relished the irony of demonstrating thatGalileo’s misnamed “lunar seas” may actually have been formedby impacts in ancient lunar seas.

All that aside, there’s certainly no hard proof that the ancientMoon had an extensive hydrosphere as Gilvarry proposed. Yet,Saal’s and Hauri’s water-rich Apollo glass beads may prompt afew scientists to revisit a long lost lunar theory of the 1950s thatwent out of fashion alongside Detroit’s automobile tailfins.

The Moon’s watery past

By Lou Varricchio

Seeing Stars

History doesn’t exactly repeat, but it doesraise questions.

Example: the recent report from the AmericanLegislative Exchange Council that Vermont ranks49th (only New York was worse) in an evaluationof 10-year economic performance.

The report measured such things as growth inthe economy, growth in personal income, evengrowth in population, none of the above beingparticularly compatible with the new Vermont am-bition: anti-growth and pro-sustainability. Long be-fore the latter noun became trendy, the State’sthinkers had already envisioned a route differentfrom the typical growth objectives, as measured byALEC. As history would later show, it became aGolden Dome example of Robert Frost’s road nottaken.

With proper attribution to George Orwell andhis invention, in his “1984” novel—of the govern-mental memory hole for the removal of inconven-ient historical fact from public memory andknowledge—I can now ask this question: whatev-er happened to the idealistic notion of the late1960s and early ‘70s that Vermont should seek itshighly ranked place in history and economics bybecoming the Education State?

Those were interesting years. Not just becauseof the influx of urban refugees from such “smart-growth” high-density enclaves such as NYC’sBrooklyn or Boston’s Dorchester, but to learn first-hand that green beans don’t grow well in the high-er elevations of the Northeast Kingdom.

The 1960s-70s was also a time when the former-ly prosperous dairy industry was experiencingcontinuing milk-price deficits and the then pro-business private and public sectors had been com-piling a fairly good record of attracting new non-farm high-tech industry in response.

The successful school district reorganizationcampaign of the previous decades had resulted ina host of new 750-pupil union high schools to sup-plement a mix of smaller public and semi-privateinstitutions, and a new environmental movementwas already beginning to argue that bringing inever more IBMs and EverReadys wasn’t cleanenough for Vermont’s future. Folks argued thatVermont should seek to be the Education State. Itnever happened. Why not?

Well, it wasn’t for lack of conferences. Typicallythey were attended by interested private citizens,like me; all of us attended on our own nickel andgovernmental officials, similarly attending on ournickel via taxes, and there was a lot of enthusiasm,in those mid- and late-‘60s Philip Hoff gubernato-rial years.

A few of probably remember Gov. Hoff: first De-mocrat Vermont governor in 150 years; even moreremarkable, although never media-mentioned,was that he was chosen by a Vermont electoratewhich hadn’t yet become gentrified with their im-ported Volvos and “Buy Local” bumperstickers.

Typically, there was a lot of talk about the thenwidespread three-legged stool image of the Ver-mont economy: agriculture, industry, and tourism,and a lot of con jecture about an education fourthleg.

There wasn’t any left versus right ideology ofthe contemporary sort, just a general consensus

that Vermont’sdestiny as theEducationState would becomprised ofboth publicand privatesectors.

The publicsector wouldbe building onits recent suc-cesses in in-stalling theGoldilocks-ideal highschool proto-type-sized just right, with academic subjects taughtat the several-in-a-county level and vocation sub-jects taught at the regional level, with high produc-tivity and achievement everywhere.

The high productivity shows up in low costs: in1960, U.S .average annual Current Expenditure(somewhat lower than total at $471) was $375 perpupil; Vermont came in at $344.

The private sector would consist of just thatrange of country day and boarding schools, two-and-four-year colleges, and proprietary vocationalschools then sharply boosting their enrollments.

Especially in Vermont, a handful of the lattersprang up and were instantly profitable, eventhough some cynics ascribed male college enroll-ment to the side-benefit of a Vietnam-service draftexemption, subject testing being less demandingthan infantry service.

Conversely, the low achievement levels, funda-mentally unimproved since being revealed in theinitiation of federal NAEP testing in 1969, weren’tas problematic then, when rapid improvementwas confidently assumed, as they are now, whenspending has soared but, for example, the percentof students scoring 300 (out of 500) in reading wentfrom 39 percent in 1971 to 38 percent in 2004. Theother 61 percent then, six years ago and today,would be deemed non-proficient—unable to han-dle grade-level expectations in reading.

At times, the imaginings for Vermont-as-Educa-tion-State went even further.

Some of us argued in the conferences for both afocus on education (private and public) and a fo-cus on the cleanest industry of all (research and de-velopment). In a symbiotic/catalytic relationship,each would support and improve the other, withwell-educated graduates staffing the labs and at-tracting new investments in faculties and facilitiesand customers for both.

Vermont would have become a magnet state—not for free public services, but for highly competi-tive schools and labs. The mix would have gener-ated innovation, jobs, income, investment, andrevenues for the public sector in taxes and for theprivate sector in profits. The road was never taken.

Even as this dream faded away, those of us whowondered where it went, back in the late ‘70s, nev-er could figure out why it never happened. Thequestion isn’t even being asked any more. Instead,the nearest thing to an education strategy has beenthe captive-insurance company strategy.

‘Nuf said.

Retired Vermont architect Martin Harris observes GreenMountainState politics from a safe distance—Tennessee.

The road not taken

Man, oh, man—did I have a goodsoup for lunch today. Beet. Beetsoup it was. Red as red, smooth and

soft as velvet. I asked the chef what she had in it: beet,

onion, celery, ginger, thyme maybe, and some-thing else. That’s all I remember. The point isbeet was not the only ingredient. I’ll either askthe chef how she made it, or look it up, cause Itell you what—it was some good, soup. It’s allI’ve been thinking about. Of course I like beets.

The sourp was served in a reddish mugwhich worked for me. The place also has agolden colored mug that I’ll ask to have thesoup in next time, which I hope is tomorrow,cause I’m eating there tomorrow, and what withthinking many folks will choose today’s othersoup offering, black bean, over the beet soup,there will still be some beet left for tomorrow.You want to have things to look forward to.

I’m headed to Richford, Vt., tonight to do aprivate show for a small company of farmersand their wives. I’ll eat on the way home inMorrisville at the Bee’s Knee’s. I love their macand cheese. I don’t like garlic, so lucky for methe Bee’s Knee’s doesn’t put any in their m andc.

I like the portion size they serve; they serve itwith a small salad and I always order two or-ders of applesauce. They don’t make the apple-sauce there, but I know it’s made from a smalljoint. For some reason I’ve more of an attractionto food if I think it’s not coming from a hugemanufacturing plant. So mac and cheese, smallsalad, double order of applesauce, so thick youcan eat it with a fork; and for desert, what else,a brownie. They make some good ones at theBee’s Knee’s. Of course there is live music andpretty girls every night and locals to chat with.Most nights I prefer reading at the counter, butif the right local is there to chat with, why, I loveto chat. For a drink, I have hibiscus iced teawith lemon. You want to have things to lookforward to, right?

Thing is, just now, I remember I ate at a placein Montgomery (near Richford) last summer. Ithink it’s called the Snowshoe, something likethat.

We did a television commercial up therecause I wrote one that needed a covered bridgeand Montgomery is known as the town with themost covered bridges in Vermont. After wewere done shooting, we stopped to eat at theSnowshoe (from the outside it looked rough).Well, Mister Bubby Jones, not only was thewaitress cute and smalltownishly flirtable, butthe danged turkey club I ordered was the bestturkey club I’ve ever had. No joke.

Real turkey is one of the keys to a greatturkey club; they used real turkey. The tomatowas just picked and the cheese and bread werefresh as a line-dried towel. I really don’t knowwhy it was so good. I just know it was.

I was stunned cause I judge a book and caféby their covers. By it’s cover, the Snowshoelooked like it serves it’s soup in tin. So maybe

I’ll stop at theSnowshoe onmy way homeinstead ofwaiting until Iget to Mor-risville. It alldepends onhow I feel.

I’ve been tothe Snowshoejust that onetime but I’vebeen to the Bee’s Knee’s a hundred times atleast. My best for sure choice would be to waitto eat at the Bee’s Knee’s since they’re more aproven homerun for me. You want to have op-tions when looking forward to something.

I’m into Castleton Crackers made in Castle-ton, Vt. The package promotes them as all-natu-ral, no preservative Vermont artisan cracker.They are unique and tasty and worth everypenny. They come in a handful of flavors: Wyn-dam Wheat, Middlebury Maple, Rutland Rye,and two more new flavors: a pumpkin one thathas cranberries, and another that I tried andloved, but I don’t remember the name or whatthe spices that are in it.

I don’t buy stuff simply because it comesfrom Vermont; I buy it cause I like it. Like thecinnamon apple jelly I bought that’s made inYork, Maine. I bought it at a local store in Stowe— the Harvest Market. It’s one of those fangledfood stores. This market has a huge old cup-board lined with jellies and sauces from York,Maine. Beautifully displayed, a small glass jarof hand made jelly is hard to pass. So I reachedto a jar of what my eye landed on, which was ajar of cinnamon apple jelly. I’m not a toast eaterat all, not much bread hitting my gullet in gen-eral — though I do love it. I just don’t eat breadmuch cause it’s too filling; it doesn’t leaveenough room in the gullet for other kinds offoods. So, I bought the jelly. Let me tell you, thatMaine jelly spread medium thick on a CastletonCracker is all you need to cure what ails you.Better yet, get into some beet soup with that jel-ly cracker combo on the side, hit the couch,throw on a Hallmark Channel Christmas DVDand you’ll think you’ve died and gone to mid-dle-age heaven.

I thought I’d write about what I mostly thinkabout: food. I can’t write about the other thing Imostly think about: sex. Well, I can, but not ingreat detail. I think about family, friends, andwork a lot, too.

Food, sex, family, friends, work. Food, sex,family, friends, work. In that order. Basic. That’sit for me.

Sorry, but I don’t care about much else. To-day, I don’t feel like pretending I do.

The Vergennes Congrega-tional Church will host aMagic show with Lincoln’spremier international magi-cian, Tom Verner, on Sunday,Nov. 7, 3-5 p.m.; the public isinvited. Church leadershave opened the event tochildren and adults to in-crease public awareness andfunds for two mission proj-ects in El Salvador.

The first mission involvesa group of fourteen Ver-gennes church memberswho will travel to ElSal-vador in February, 2011 tohelp build homes for poorfamilies through Habitat forHumanity’s Global villageprogram. The group willtravel to the capital city, SanSalvador, before meeting upwith a team leader for Habi-tat for Humanity, who willtransport the group to theLaPaz region, to work forfive full days near the city ofZacatecoluca.

Two years ago the Ver-gennes church raised fundsand sent over a dozen vol-unteers to Guatemala underthe Global village program.

The second mission,called Magicians WithoutBorders, has taken magicman, Tom Verner, to ElSal-vador every four months forthe past six years, training agroup of children to become

magicians (many of the chil-dren were living in agarbage dump). Verner says“becoming magicians awak-ened in these childrendreams that the impossibleis possible. Four of thesechildren are now in collegeand regularly performingmagic as well. The othersare finishing high school,

and are also teaching a sec-ond generation of magi-cians. Their lives have beenprofoundly changed”.

The Vergennes Congrega-tional Church is located at 30South Water Street Ver-gennes, with parking in therear or on the street. Themagic show will begin at 3pm, followed by questions

and answers, and light re-freshments and snacks. Ad-mission to the event is free,but donations will be ac-cepted to support travel andother costs of these two mis-sions. For more informationabout the event or to make adonation, contact the Ver-gennes CongregationalChurch at 877-2435.

HOT-ROD LINCOLN — A classic 1949 Ford Lincoln adds some panache to the newly refurbished McDonald’s Restaurant in Middle-bury last week. Several members of the Snake Mountain Cruisers brought their spiffy antique motorcars to the grand opening of theCross Street Bridge Oct. 30.


The Rev. Michele Brigham hasaccepted an invitation from theUnited Church of Hinesburg toserve as its interim pastor, re-placing the Rev. Bill Neil. Shemoved into the church parson-age Nov. 1 after brief visits tofriends and family on the EastCoast. Her installation servicewas last Sunday.

The United Church of Hines-burg congregation recentlyadopted a statement definingthe church as “an open, welcom-ing, and affirming church and areconciling congregation, em-bracing diversity in our congre-gation and community, and affirming the dignity and worth of everyperson.”

The congregation’s statement explicitly “welcomes persons ofevery race, language, age, gender, sexual orientation, physical ormental ability, economic or marital status, and faith background.”It affirms and celebrates “all loving and committed relationships”and commits itself “to work diligently to end all oppression and dis-crimination.”

The United Church of Hinesburg has ties to the American Bap-tist, United Church of Christ, and United Methodist churches.

“Pastor Bill, who has transferred to a church in Massachusetts,led the congregation in its consideration and passage of the ‘openand affirming’ revision to its by-laws,” said Sharonlee Trefry, chairof the new-pastor search committee. “We’ve asked Pastor Micheleto guide us as we search for a permanent pastor and move forwardto become a more truly inclusive congregation than we have beenin the past.”

Dr. Brigham is in the process of moving from Wisconsin to Ver-mont and will begin serving the United Church of Hinesburg nextmonth. She is the mother of two adult children: Paul, 31, who livesin Massachusetts with his wife and daughter, and Ann Martha, 21,who lives in Los Angeles with her friend Bill Rieger. Her husband,Bill, died in 2008.

She holds a bachelor of arts degree in psychology from Missis-sippi College in Clinton, Miss., a master’s of divinity from South-ern Seminary in Louisville, Ky., and a doctorate in ministry fromAndover Newton Theological School in Newton, Mass., with a con-centration on pastoral psychology.

“I am delighted to be a part of the United Church of Hinesburgand the Vermont Conference of the UCC,” said Dr. Bingham, whodescribed the Hinesburg church as one that “emphasizes our ecu-menical relationships.”

Dr. Brigham was raised, educated, and ordained Southern Bap-tist. She spent her early years of ministry in Miami, Fla., and as amissionary in Bangkok, Thailand, where she was a campus minis-ter, college lecturer, and youth minister.

She transferred her ordained ministerial standing to UnitedChurch of Christ in 1989 and served as Protestant Chaplain at Bent-ley College in Waltham, Mass., and pastor of the Montvale Congre-gational Church in Woburn, Mass. In 1993, the family moved to EastWalpole, Mass., where she served as pastor of the Union Congre-gational Church.

Another move, in 1999, took the family to East Orleans, Mass.,where Dr. Brigham was senior pastor of the Federated Church ofOrleans. She also became a fellow in the American Association ofPastoral Counseling, had a small private pastoral counseling prac-tice, and served in leadership positions with the Nauset Clergy As-sociation, Barnstable Association, and Massachusetts Conference.She has served as pastor of the Immanuel United Church of Christ,in Plymouth, Wisc., since 2007.

The United Church of Hinesburg is on Route 116 in the heart ofHinesburg village. Sunday worship services are at 10 a.m. exceptin July and August, when services are at 9 a.m. A Sunday Schoolprogram, recently been revitalized under the leadership of GraceFarley, operates during services.

Governor named executive-in-residence at college

Middlebury College PresidentRon Liebowitz announced last weekthat Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas (R),a 1972 graduate of Middlebury, willbe an executive in residence at thecollege.

Douglas will begin his appoint-ment in January when he teaches acourse, “Vermont Government andPolitics,” during Middlebury’s win-ter term. He will also serve as a men-tor and adviser to students interest-ed in politics and Vermont affairs.Douglas, whose term as governorwill end Jan. 6, also plans to spendtime writing about his more than 35years in Vermont politics, including the last eight as gover-nor.

“We are most fortunate to have Jim, an alumnus and resi-dent of Middlebury, join our college community,” saidLiebowitz. “Jim will be a wonderful resource for studentswith the vast experience and knowledge that he has gainedfrom holding a variety of positions in state government.”

"Middlebury College is a place I know well and I am ex-cited about being a part of the campus community,” saidDouglas. “I look forward to working with the students andfaculty.”

Douglas was elected to the Vermont House of Represen-tatives after graduating from college in 1972. He became as-sistant majority leader in his second term and majorityleader in his third term, at 25. Douglas left the legislature in1979 to become a top aide to Gov. Richard Snelling (R).

He was elected secretary of state in 1980, a post he heldfor 12 years. He was then elected state treasurer in 1994. Dur-ing that time, Vermont’s bond rating became the best in NewEngland and one of the best in the nation. Douglas hasserved as governor since 2003.

Douglas is the former president of the Council of StateGovernments and is the immediate past chairman of the Na-tional Governors Association. In February 2010 PresidentObama appointed him co-chairman of the Council of Gov-ernors.

An active community member, Douglas has served on theboards of numerous organizations such as the Vermont Sym-phony Orchestra and the United Ways of both AddisonCounty and Vermont. He is also the town moderator of Mid-dlebury, a post he has heldfor more than 20 years.

Election resultsTo the editor:While Vermont sure didn’t represent the mood of the rest

of the nation when it came to voting last week, the messagebeyond was clear enough: the Obama agenda is dead. Theunanswered questions are how much of the Democrats’ de-structive agenda will be repealed and how much will they bewilling to concede? The GOP does not have to control the U.S.Senate to move legislation through. So, while Vermont’s D.C.trio won’t help here, there are other elected officials to get theship-of-state out of the way of a looming iceberg.

Marty GreenlowGoshen

Illegal aliensTo the editor:Were you driving on Route 22A around 10:50 p.m. on Oct.

21, with your kids and spouse in the car? Why should I ask?Well, here is one big reason, as reported by the Vermont StatePolice last week:

Summary of Incident: State Police conducted a motor vehicle stopof Jose Tomas Flores Rocha as he was traveling at 72MPH in a50MPH zone on Route 22A in Orwell. He was operating a vehiclewith Mississippi registration plates that were expired. Investiga-tion during the stop revealed that Rocha and his passenger, PaolaLopez-Sarmiento were illegal immigrants. Rocha’s Oregon driverslicense was condemned. The two subjects were turned over to Bor-der Patrol.

Ok, here’s the big question for all those who believe thispair should have been let go to continue on and perhaps t-bone someone or hit a pedestrian.

How much insurance did they have on the car covering li-ability, uninsured/underinsured motorist, personal injuryand property damage.

The first correct answer wins a free trip to New Mexico orArizona (your choice) to see the enviro-damage done by theillegals crossing the border.

Vermont’s U.S. Congressional delegation will pay for thetrip when you convince them this behavior is not acceptable.

One more question: do you think these two vehicular ter-rorists will be deported? Maybe jailed—like you would forsuch a heinous act? Ask Vermont’s Election Day victors thisquestion. Let’s see them lie to you.

Maybe it will be your kids going to the morgue and you get-ting the phone call?

Ed MannWaltham

Politics as usualTo the editor: My comments here, aimed at unscrupulous political candi-

dates or their machines and at those who might be swayed bytheir rhetoric, have been prompted by the rush of politicalcampaign advertisements, largely negative, as we approachthe November elections.

It seems to me that any candidate for political office whoattempts to gain office by misrepresenting an opponent ismore interested in wielding political power than in servingthe public. I may be naive, but I hope that a candidate whosepriority is to serve would always prefer to identify in whatway his/her policies will serve the public. Unfortunately itseems that a distinct majority of candidates, on this basis, dis-qualify themselves from holding office.

Furthermore, any candidate for political office who as-sumes ignorance on the part of the voting public, exploitingthis to make misrepresentation of an opponent sound moreplausible, similarly does not have the best interests of thepublic at heart. A candidate who plays on public ignorancefirst of all gives insult to many potential voters, and second-ly has great interest in maintaining such ignorance where itexists, which, methinks, does not bode well for education asa priority.

Those who interpret their constitutional right to "freedomof speech" as "freedom to lie" or "freedom to hoodwink" sore-ly abuse the very constitution which they typically claim tohold dear. Shame on all who adopt this strategy. And shameon all whose votes are bought by such lies.

Peter MacfarlaneAddison

Endorsement lettersTo the editor:I was pleased to learn that the Addison Eagle refuses to

publish candidate endorsement letters. These letters are bo-gus—nothing but hot air. They are worthless as far as in-forming voters about the many issues that confront Vermontvoters—such as our state legislature’s anti-business policies,unemployment, high taxes, etc. I have heard of at least onecandidate here in Addison County who prompts supportersto write “atta boy” (maybe, “atta girl”) letters. Such phoneybaloney scribblings are insulting to readers. I think allnewspapers should adopt the Eagle’s fair plan and end thepractice of printing these self-serving endorsements. I’ll de-cide if your worthy of my endorsement in the voting booth.

Helping evergreen treesand shrubs prepare for winter,wrapping trunks of youngtrees, and getting tools readyfor winter are some of the gar-dening activities for thismonth.

Evergreens continue torespire (that is, lose moisturealbeit slowly) during the win-ter, so make sure they have agood deep watering beforethe ground freezes. It’s best towater them well for severalweeks, if there aren’t deepand long rains. Protect youngplants from wind damageduring winter by wrappingthem in burlap or with wooden protectors on the windwardside.

Wrap the trunks with tree wrap or use white plastic protec-tors to prevent sunscald and frost cracking on young, thin-barked trees, such as maples. These materials will reflect thewarming rays of the sun so the tree bark doesn't heat up onwinter days, only to be suddenly cooled when the sun sets andthe temperatures plummet. The plastic protectors also preventrodents from gnawing on the trunks. Or, you can wrap thetrunks with wire mesh.

Take some time this fall to get your mower and other pow-er equipment ready for storage. Wipe off any dirt and debris,especially loose wet grass that may have accumulated on thedeck or caked underneath it. This can rust the deck over win-ter, shortening the life of the mower body. If reaching underthe deck, make sure to disconnect the spark plug first so theengine has no chance of starting. Then you can store with thefuel tank empty or full. If storing with fuel, add a stabilizer,then run the machine for about 10 minutes. Store mowers in adry location, or if outdoors, wrap in a waterproof tarp.

After their dry summer rest period, watch for signs of shootgrowth on amaryllis. That signals it's time to pot them up, orif already potted to resume watering. Use a pot only slightlylarger than the bulb diameter. Set a bulb into moistened pot-

ting mix so one-half to one-third of the bulb protrudes abovethe soil. Place the pot in a warm well-lit spot, and don't waterit again until the first leaf or flower shoot starts to grow.

Protect the soil of your empty vegetable bed and keep outwayward weed seeds by covering the beds with leaves orstraw. Avoid weedy hay as this only introduces millions ofweed seeds. This surface organic matter also can encouragebeneficial earthworm activity.

There's a window of opportunity for mulching because youwant to wait until the ground freezes so you don't give rodentsa hiding place too soon, but if you don't mulch before the snowaccumulates, it won't get done. If we could rely on constantsnow cover, mulching would be less necessary, but in the ab-sence of that protection, we need to provide a winter blanket.Some plants such as coral bells, delphiniums, oriental poppies,iris, violas, and sedum are better off without any mulch, espe-cially in winter, when it can compact and encourage crown rot.

Before snow flies and the ground freezes, November is yourlast chance to plant garlic bulbs, to dig gladiolus to store in-doors over winter, and to plant fall bulbs. If you don’t get yourspring-blooming bulbs planted, pot them, then store indoorsin a cool place (40 degrees is ideal, as in a spare refrigerator orcold root cellar), just don’t let them freeze. Then, anytime af-ter 12 weeks you can bring into warmth indoors to force intobloom.

Courses for local vegetable farmers

Though the busy growing season is winding down forvegetable farmers, opportunities for learning and improv-ing operations continue. This fall, the Northeast OrganicFarming Association of Vermont (NOFA-Vt.), with supportfrom the University of Vermont (UVM) and the NortheastSustainable Agriculture and Research (NE-SARE) program,will be offering two courses intended to address some of themost pressing issues for intermediate to advanced farmers.

“On-Farm Energy” and “Marketing that Sells” are boththree-day intensive courses that take place over the courseof several weeks in November and December.

“On-Farm Energy: Saving Money through Efficiency andRenewables” will cover the most critical aspects of energyuse on vegetable farms. Beginning with an overview of farmenergy use and how to do a simple energy audit, the coursewill also cover greenhouses and refrigeration in detail, fo-cusing on how equipment choices, innovations, and renew-ables can reduce energy consumption and cut costs. Speak-ers for this course include John Bartok of the University ofConnecticut, Craig Metz of EnSave in Richmond and sev-eral innovative local farmers.

Beginning Nov. 16, “Marketing that Sells” features farmbusiness consultant Rose Wilson as well as a number of suc-cessful Vermont farmers. This course will evaluate market-ing options for vegetable farms; each participant will createa practical, action-oriented marketing plan tailored to theiroperation. Topics to be covered include displays, onlinemarketing, branding, events, and strategies for measuringfeedback.

Both courses will take place in Berlin. Registration foreach is $125; those who register for both will save $25 on thetotal cost. Additional mentoring and enterprise analysis areavailable to a limited number of participants in each course.For more information and to register, visitwww.nofavt.org/annual-events/farmercourses or contactNOFA-Vt. at [email protected] or 802-434-4122.

Local students honored

On a sloppy field and a cold night there weren’t a lot ofscoring opportunities for either the Fair Haven Slaters orMiddlebury Tigers in their Division-II semifinal game lastFriday night in Middlebury. The Tigers took advantage oftwo Slater miscues to build up a 9-0 lead, and then held offa fourth quarter Slater surge to win 9-6.

Middlebury’s first opportunity came in the opening quar-ter when they recovered a fumble at the 25 yard line. Theytook it in from their with Bryan Ashley-Sellick finishing itwith a nine yard touchdown run. Alex Bowdish increasedthe Tigers lead to 9-0 with a 20 yard field goal in the secondquarter.

The score remained 9-0 until the fourth quarter when the

Slaters put together a 14 play 63 yard drive, ending with afive yard touchdown run from Dakota Euber. The Slaterswere driving again in the final minute of play but an inter-ception ended the drive, and the season for Far Haven. TheTigers advance to this Saturday’s D-II championship perfectat 10-0.

The Tigers opponent in this Saturday’s division-II StateChampionship game will be the third seeded Rice GreenKnights. Rice’s quarterback Christian McCormick complet-ed 15 of 31 passes for 240 yards and a touchdown.

McCormick also had a rushing touchdown while leadinghis Green Knights to a convincing 29-8 semifinal win overthe Champlain Valley Union Red Hawks, last Saturday inColchester.

Casey Tipson chipped in with four receptions for 81 yards,and had a rushing touchdown. Dan Bolger had 10 carries for

43 yards to lead the ground attack for the Falcons.The real story for the Knights came on the other side of the

ball. CVU’s offense could only manage 13 rushing yards theentire game, and when they tried to pass it got worse. As ateam (CVU starter Konnor Fleming was injured early and theRed Hawks tried four different quarterbacks in his stead) theRed Hawks completed none of their nine pass attempts, un-less you count the three that were intercepted. CVU finallymanaged to score when returned a fumble 78 yards withthree minutes left to play in the game.

The 9-1 Green Knights will face off against the top seeded10-0 Middlebury Tigers this Saturday (November 13) atCastleton State College for the Division-II State Champi-onship. If you like football you don’t want to miss this one.It should be one hard fought, exciting contest.

The Oxbow High Schoolfootball team may have comeinto their Division III playoffgame with Bellows Falls asthe underdog, but they cameto play, hanging in there fora half before finally falling tothe potent Terrier offense,33-8, at Hadley Field in West-minster.

Bellows Falls did jump outearly in this one, when sen-ior running back Ryan Hey-ward took the first hand offfrom scrimmage and raced58-yards down the left side-line for a quick 6-0 lead afterthe extra-point was missed.

However, neither teamcould get any more offensefor the remainder of the firstquarter, although Oxbox didgenerate two first downs, be-fore losing a fumble whichkilled the drive.

Bellows Falls would final-ly get their offense going inthe second quarter, produc-ing four consecutive firstdowns to get the ball insidethe Oxbow 20-yard line, butthe drive stalled when aquarterback pitch was fum-bled and the Olympians re-covered.

Oxbow had one morechance to get a drive goingbefore the half and got back-to-back first downs, but thedrive was killed when theycould not convert on afourth-and-three at midfield. However, the half end-ed with the Terriers' holdingjust a 6-0 lead and Oxbowstill very much in the game.

The sec-ond half,however,would beanother sto-ry as theBellowsFalls of-fense finallykicked intogear forwhich theOxbow de-fense hadno answers.With justover sevenminutes left in the thirdquarter, BF quarterback Jere-my Kilburn hit senior Bren-dan Hackett with a beautiful,65-yard touchdown pass anda 12-0 lead.

On the ensuing Oxbowpossession, BF junior TylerFrancoeur somehow man-aged to strip the ball awayfrom Olympian runningback Barry Weigel and scam-pered the other way some 41-yards for another touch-down and a 20-0 lead after aJake Stratton two-pointer.

Oxbow gained two firstdowns on their next drivebut had to punt it away, giv-ing the Terriers the ball onceagain. This time, Kilburn hitsenior wide out Cam Howedown the sideline for a 37-yard touchdown and a 27-0lead after a Hackett extrapoint.

Running back CooperLong would make it 33-0with a 45-yard touchdown of

his own, before Oxbow final-ly scored a touchdown lateon a 45-yard pass fromWeigel to Lucas Musty toend the scoring at 33-8 aftera two-point conversion.

"This was obviously a bigwin for us today," BellowsFalls coach Bob Lockerbysaid after the game. "We did-n't play very well in the firsthalf and let Oxbow hangaround, but give them creditbecause they certainly cameto play today.

"Our confidence seemed alittle shaken at halftime, butI just told the boys that thefirst half was over, now justgo out and execute better inthe second half… and theydid. This is just a great groupof kids to coach and theyhave worked hard all year,now we have one more gamea head of us and we'll seewhat happens against Wind-sor."

Running back Ryan Hey-

ward led the offense with 118yards on 13 carries and atouchdown, while quarter-back Jeremy Kilburn threwfor 104 yards passing and

two touchdowns. The Terri-ers and Yellow Jackets willnow play for the Division IIcrown on Saturday at Castle-ton State College.

MysteryFrom page 1home. Well, I love these kinds of mur-der-mystery-detective stories, so I be-came very interested.”

The idea to write a novel based onthe crime evolved out of their discus-sion of the incident.

“We both were spooked by this,”Brande said, “so we said ‘we need tofind out more about this because it’s anunsolved mystery’.”

Emilo noted that “we both like tele-vision programs like ‘Unsolved Mys-teries’—and this is the perfect kind ofstory for that show. Plus, no one everidentified or brought the murderer tojustice. A woman and two childrenwere murdered.”

Just the factsNot wanting to reveal too much

about their story plotline, which isbased closely on the triple murder,Emilo and Brande said their fictionalretelling involves getting inside theminds of the victims. A few ghosts willappear in the story, too, they said. Thewriters deftly outlined their plot on in-dex cards and are writing the draft atBrande’s home office in Bristol.

“We want this book to cover all theemotions,” Emilo said. “Romantic,spooky, suspenseful. We’re looking atthe end of next year to finish.”

The real incident still baffles Ver-mont law enforcement officials.

Two females and one male were shotin the head with a .38 caliber firearm.A bullet fragment was found in one ofthe skulls, according to Emilo andBrande.

On May 15, 1935, the partially de-composed skeletons of three hu-mans—two pre 16-year-old youthsand one adult woman, between theages of 20 and 35—were uncovered.The remains were wrapped tightly in

what was described as a green canvasstorefront awning. Seventy five yearsago, the site of the crime was locatednear a cow pasture—now turned towoodland—along Raphael’s Lane inEast Middlebury.

Old Raphael Lane, now covered byautumn leaves, is part of the LeicesterHollow and VAS trail systems; it’s lo-cated off Munson Lane and BurnhamDrive, a few hundred yards northeastof the Middlebury State Airport fence-line.

“The skeletons were discoveredshortly after noon. Mrs. Fred Dagueand her daughter Inez Perry were outfor a walk along the lane looking formayflowers,” said Roxanna Emilo.Emilo lives near the site where theskeletons were discovered. “At thetime, this lane provided access to theBlackmor-Brookins family camp.”

While accompanying her mother onthe walk, Inez Perry noticed an oddwhitish stone on the ground; shekicked it. The ‘stone’ turned out to bea human skull, Emilo said.

Even before Vermont State PoliceDet. Almo B. Franzoni and AddisonCounty Sheriff Ralph Sweet were onthe scene to investigate, the site wasvisited by local onlookers curious tocatch a glimpse of the human remains.Eager high school students arrived intheir jalopies to check out the excite-ment; classes ended early in the after-noon when the news reached down-town.

As a result of the circuslike atmos-phere, some vital evidence may havebeen removed. The onlookers tookpieces of the tarp, that covered the re-mains, as souvenirs.

Brandon resident Conrad Lecompteadmitted that he had removed a pieceof the canvas awning as a keepsake ofthe crime. He was at the scene shortlyafter the gruesome discovery and re-

called it looking a bit like the RutlandFair. There was a steady stream of carsalong the old road. Even a few days af-ter the discovery, there were dozens ofcars parked along Raphael Lane,Lecompte recalled in a local newspa-per account published in 1965.

It’s unknown what other evidencemay have been disturbed at the time,the women said. Based on tree rootsfound around the remains, it is be-lieved the victims could have beenthere from between two to 10 years.

“We interviewed the late RobertFenn on audiotape. He lived near thesite,” said Brande. “He was on thecrime scene a short time after the re-mains were discovered.”

On May 15, the teenage Fenn heardthe news and quickly invited pals to goalong with him. He drove his 1926Dodge convertible up the road to goand check out the scene of the crime.

“Mr. Fenn told us that he tore off apiece of the tarp that covered the bod-ies for a souvenir. In those days, the po-lice didn’t tape-off a crime scene. Peo-ple were walking all around the siteand touching everything. When we in-terviewed him a few years ago, he hadno idea where the piece of cloth was lo-cated. There was talk about who mighthave committed the murder, but hedidn’t feel comfortable about spread-ing gossip,” Brande said.

BicycleFrom page 1customizes it with heavy duty can-tilever brakes, adds sealed bearings,builds the hub motor into the rim, in-cludes an internal-gear hub, thenplaces a powerful 9-volt lithium-ionbattery up front to free-up cargo spaceon the rear rack—thus, the uniqueNor-Easter bike becomes a completelynew product made for New England’swild terrain and beyond. There’s trulynothing like it—anywhere. Really.

“The back rack can carry up to 200pounds,” he said, “because the beefysteel frame can bear it. The gearing isvery low, the tires very knobby—so it’sa true off-road vehicle. It’s a mazingwhat I can go through with this baby.”

Mathewson noted that if you ride abike that powers itself to 20 mph ormore, the bike must be very stable un-derneath you.

“The Nor-Easter is an electric bikedesigned for Vermont’s terrain,” hesaid.” It’s kind of the pickup truck ofelectric bikes. In fact, we customized awooden bed on the back. You can useit for hunting in the deep woods andbring a deer out with you.”

Mathewson has taken off-the-shelfelectric bike technology from E-BikeK-it, the Electric Bike Conversion Systemof New Jersey, and customized it forVermonters who want somethingmore from an electric bike.

“It’s not a motorcycle or a scooter,”he said, “but you can get a big boostfrom the electric motor, up to 20 mph.It's great commuting bike for hills. Youcan also pedal it like a traditional bike.”

The Nor-easter is powered by a lithi-um-ion battery. WHile the batteryshouldn’t be submerged, Mathewsonsaid you can ride the bike through

streams above the the hubs.“Our road version can go up to 23

miles an hour for 15 to 30 miles de-pending on rider, terrain, wind and theamount of assistance given on the partof the rider,” Mathewson said. “Ouroff-road model can go places youwould not think it could. The motorsare fully submersible and all parts areof high quality.”

We asked Mathewson: Why the fas-cination with getting more people onbikes—human-powered or electricversions?

“Well, when I was 12, I started fix-ing bikes and selling them to my neigh-bors,” he said.” When I was 14, I gotmy first job at a bike shop and startedracing bikes around New England.During the following 35 years I haveowned three different bikes shops,worked at shops in Florida and Ver-mont and given clinics to manyschools... Here in America, most of ustake for granted the ease in which wecan get around. This being said, thereare still people in this country that havevarious issues around getting around.One group of people is those who aretoo heavy for the normal bicycle de-sign. Helping to get anyone from thisgroup to be able to ride is very re-warding, as I believe that everyone de-serves to be able to ride if they chooseto do so.”

Check It Out: The Little City CyclesNor’easter is priced at $2,499 and includespowerful, lightweight lithium-ion batteryand charger. The $500-value battery willlast the user for five to six years before itneeds to be replaced. Tim Mathewson alsorepairs all electric bikes. If you have atighter budget, he can furnish existing ornew bikes with electric kits to help you geton the road and go electric.

MarketFrom page 1

for business to the delight of local—and not so local—resi-dents.

Take Mike Cavalucchi, a retired Bronx fireman now liv-ing in Addison. We found him outside Small City Marketfilling up his GMC 4x4 truck with Mobil gasoline.

”I was in Vergennes back in September to pick some truckparts,” said Cavalucchi. “So I stopped at the market for aquick lunch. I see the deli advertises New York-style brickoven pizza. I said ‘yeah, well, ok’ let’s give it a try. You knowwhat they say about New York-style pizza, eh? I am Italian-American, from the Bronx. Believe me, it’s not easy findinggood pizza in Vermont.”

As Cavalucchi tells it, he’s back in Vergennes—not fortruck parts this time, but for a lkarge New York-style pizzato take home and a fill up. Small City Market’s pizzas oughtto be good, they’re made with wholesome ingredients in oneof the world’s best pizza ovens manufactured in the USA bythe Marcel family of New York.

”I was in Vergennes in September to pick up some parts,”said Cavalucchi. “So I stopped at the market for a quicklunch. I liked the pizza. Now this place is on my list. I real-ly like the pizza. It tastes like home. It’s worth the drive. Icome up here one day a week. I get a pizza pie, pick up somewine, snacks, then fill up the truck with gas.”

Yes, there must be something special about Small CityMarket. Mike Cavalucchi has apparently discovered themagic.

Owners Cory and Hilary Foote bought Small City Marketat it’s old location, across the street, in 1998. They purchasedthe store from Harold and Ann Masterson.

“The business has continued to grow since 1998,” saidCory, a 13th generation native Vermonter. “I had been inreal estate before going into this business. I also worked inretail in the Middlebury area—I worked for several suc-cessful local businessmen such as Sam Lazarus, Tony Neri,Jimmy Farrell. I even owned a pizza shop in Middlebury.

“The community has been very supportive during ourtransition to the new store,” he said. “I think our customersare pleased. While our old space was 1,275 square feet, thenew store is 2,800 square feet plus storage area. A few cus-tomers have even joked telling us that they don’t have toduck down coming inside the new front door.”

The Footes wanted the new store to be comfortable andadd something attractive to the cityscape of downtown thatfits in. The interior decor, coordinated mostly by Hilary, re-flects a modern New England style with a nod to the past.There’s plenty of natural light illuminating the store via abeautiful, clerestory tower.

“We didn’t want a typical convenience store which wasall glass. Customers like to gather here. It’s a bright place,”Cory said. “Some folks were sad about us leaving the old lo-cation, because there was a store there since the 1870s, andit was a generational hub. But it was time for a new store.”

The new store includes a cold beverage cave, an expand-ed white, red and blush wine selection, a larger delicatessenwith an impressive take-out menu plus a variety of freshNew York-style brick oven pizzas that includes Cory's owntasty barbeque-chicken pizza.

“We’ve expanded our menu,” said Hilary. “We do every-thing from coffee and breakfast sandwiches, a full array oflunch offerings, and a nightly menu—appetizers, salads,hot and cold subs and of course regular and speciality piz-zas.”

Hilary noted that an open-air merchandiser provides cus-tomers with a daily selection of fresh fruits, vegetables, sal-ads, and more.

“Since our market now offers coffee beans prepared byVermont Coffee Co. of Middlebury, more java lovers havebeen dropping by to sample the hot brews and iced cap-puccino. We switched from Green Mountain Coffee to Ver-mont Coffee and that seems to have been a good move,”Cory said.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. But when in Ver-gennes, you can do one better—drop by Small City Marketfor a bite to eat or something to take home like a fresh brick-oven pizza. And if, as the old Italian saying goes, good foodis the body of good living, then Small City Market wins allaround—it even has the wine for life’s soul.

Check It Out: Small City Market, 2 S. Water St., Vergennes,is open 5-10 p.m. Monday-Saturday, 6-9 p.m. Sundays. The del-icatessen is open 5-8 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 3-8 p.m. Sunday.For more details and holiday times, call 802-877-2416.
