When most people think of Vermont, they envision skiing down snow-covered slopes, drinking hot chocolate by a roaring bonfire or riding a horse-drawn sleigh across a snowy meadow. But Vermont is also a fabulous destination in warmer months, and one of my favorite areas to visit is the region that includes Burlington and Waterbury. Small-town charm and healthy vibes make this area a fun place to visit with family or friends.
