Our little towns are just filled to the brim with good things...

Middlebury is a quiet little town. Our "downtown" somehow gets dressed up real pretty for the holidays. We have an inviting little park downtown that children love to play in. We've all watched as our little town has stretched her arms and grown quite a bit and yet she still manages to be just a sleepy little place with a lot of down-home antique charm. A great place to visit or live!

Thanks to all who support:

spring where are you
i have waited long it's true
to feel your warm, soft breezes
and see your clouds of blue

i listen for the chirping
of your birds perched in their trees
i long for your soft rains
sent especially for me

hasten spring, oh hasten please
to end these long, cold days
let me bask in your glory
and feel the sun's warm rays
