So I'm between interviews for the weekend and rather than drive all the way home and back, I am staying at a lovely inn near a Vermont ski resort. I meant to explore the area or hole up inside my room to write overdue thank you notes to programs. Instead, I spent the day watching the snow fall (finally!), warming myself by the fire, chatting with my awesome innkeeper, playing cards with kids, and putting together a 300-piece puzzle with a 6-year old puzzle shark. We finished the puzzle! I also slept late and well to make up for some of the late night pre-interview dinners followed by 7:30 am interviews. It was really nice to spend a night away from home without having to check out before 7 a.m. dressed in my interview best.
I head down to Boston tomorrow evening after what I hope will be a fun visit to Brattleboro, Vermont. The mountain doesn't open 'til Monday so I'll have to save skiing for another time! I can hardly wait to visit the gorgeous upper northeast again soon and will definitely come back for the fall foliage season next year if I can sneak away on a weekend during internship!
