â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  had  been  wanting  to  do  a  solar  installation  and  had  started  to  gather  some  equipment.   Once  I  realized  that  micro  inverters  are  the  way  to  go,  I  found  out  that  the  panels  I  had  would  not  work  with  them.   I  had  to  start  looking  around  again.   Then  I  realized  that  Bristol  Electronics,  the  company  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  known  all  these  years  and  trust  with  my  electronic  needs,  was  also  in  the  solar  business.   They  came  down  and  checked  out  the  QHZ JDUDJH WKDW , KDG EXLOW VSHFLÂżFDOO\ WR SODFH VRODU SDQHOV RQ DQG gave  me  a  price  that  was  comparable  to  installing  it  myself.   In  no  time  at  all,  I  was  producing  electricity  and  have  not  paid  a  power  bill  for  the  last  six  months.                                                    Chris  Goodrich  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  Bridport,  VT          Â

5LĂ&#x20AC;H VHDVRQ (Continued  from  Page  1B) This  season,  weigh  station  opera-­ tors  generally  report  healthy  deer,  many  with  outstanding  antler  racks.  But  the  number  of  larger  bucks  tip-­ ping  the  scales  at  more  than  190  or  200  pounds  is  down.  Only  two  200-­pound  bucks  were Â

ZHLJKHG WKLV \HDU GXULQJ ULĂ&#x20AC;H VHD-­ son,  both  at  Vermont  Field  Sports  in  Middlebury.  Paul  Wildasin  shot  the  largest  ani-­ mal  in  Waltham,  a  208-­pound  animal  with  a  10-­point  rack,  while  Sutton  Doria  brought  down  a  200-­pound  six-­pointer  in  Ripton. Â

In  2012,  hunters  drove  eight  200-­pound  bucks  to  county  weigh  stations  to  be  weighed.  Buxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Store  owner  Doug  Ed-­ wards,  whose  business  typically  handles  a  few  larger  animals,  noted  the  trend.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  racks  this  year  were  abso-­

lutely  beautiful,  but  the  weights  just  did  not  come  in  like  usual  this  year,â&#x20AC;?  Edwards  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nice  deer,  nice  racks,  but  the  weights  were  down,  especial-­ ly  at  the  top  end.â&#x20AC;?
