On  the  Republican  side,  Lt.  Gov.  Phil  Scott  is  taking  on  former  Wall  Street  guru  Bruce  Lisman,  a  Shelburne  resident  and  businessman.  The  skinny:  Among  Democrats,  Dunne  and  Minter  have  been  running  a  close  race,  though  in  the  past  week  Dunne  made  a  calculated  move  to  clarify  his  position  on  wind  power,  saying  in  certain  terms  that  his  allegiance  as  gov- ernor  would  be  with  towns  voted  against  wind  turbines  being  erected  in  their  communities.  That  stance  drew  a  stronger-Âthan-Âexpected  reaction  from  en- vironmentalists,  including  Ripton  resident  Bill  McKibben,  who  dropped  his  support  of  Dunne  and  switched  his  allegiance  to  Minter.  Other  environmental- ists  responded  in  kind.  The  controversy  has  undercut  important  support  for  Dunne  and  put  his  campaign  in  an  unfavorable  light  just  a  week  ahead  of  the  election.  To  make  matters  worse,  this  past  Thursday  Dunne  reversed  a  pledge  to  not  self-Âfund  his  election  (in  what  had  been  a  criticism  of  Galbraith,  whose  campaign  never  took  off)  and  donated  $90,000  to  his  own  cause.  Those  in- FLGHQWV KDYH KXUW 'XQQH ZKLOH 0LQWHU KDV FDSLWDOL]HG RQ WKH NHUIXIĂ€H \HW maintained  a  politically  high  road.  Advantage  Minter.

Letters to the Editor Net  metering  has  paid  major  divends  for  Vermont Ninety-ÂSix  percent  of  the  electric- ity  consumed  annually  by  Snake  Mountain  Boatworks  LLC  (SMB)  and  our  home  in  Weybridge  (23,000  kWh  +/-Â)  is  generated  by  the  solar  and  wind  generating  infrastructure  we  installed  in  2010.  Absent  net  metering,  the  excess  electricity  we  generate  above  our  needs  eight  months  annually  would  simply  be  lost  to  the  grid.  During  the  other  four  months,  generating  shortfalls  relative  to  SMB’s  prodi- gious  appetite  for  electricity  would  be  paid  for  by  raising  the  prices  clients  pay  and  buying  electricity  —  pos- sibly  generated  by  fracked  petroleum  products  —  from  the  grid. Â
Meeting  David  Blittersdorf  in  the  mid-Â1970s  by  pure  chance  launched  us  down  this  path.  He  visited  our  place  and  immediately  was  drawn  to  D KLJK SURPRQWRU\ RXW LQ RXU ÂżHOGV “Do  you  realize  that,  sitting  here  at  the  north  end  of  this  long  valley,  is  a  near  perfect  wind  turbine  site?â€?  Nope. We  would  be  pioneers,  or  so  we  thought.  Never  mind  net  metering,  CVPS  opposed  the  very  concept  of  installing  a  wind  turbine  that  would  feed  surplus  power  back  on  the  lines.  Finally  we  won  the  right  to  install  the  turbine,  but  at  the  cost  of  simply  giv- ing  CVPS  any  surplus  we  generated.  CVPS  insisted  to  the  very  end  that  gear  trains  could  not  run  backwards. Â
But  it  was  really  all  moot  since  that  little  turbine  almost  never  generated  any  surplus  power.

Given  the  likely  cost  of  renova- tion  —  estimated  at  $500,000  to  $800,000  —  the  selectboard  had  already  decided  that  selling  the  building  —  with  restrictions  for  historical  preservation  in  place  —  is  the  best  way  for  the  town  to  move  ahead. The  RFP  puts  no  restrictions  on  what  a  new  owner  could  do  to  the  second  building  on  the  property,  the  so-Âcalled  Station  2,  built  in  the  1970s.  And  the  selectboard  assumes  that  it  would  likely  be  torn  down. Over  the  past  several  months,  the  property  has  begun  to  draw  interest.  The  town  has  to  date  heard  infor- mally  from  around  eight  different  parties  interested  in  purchasing  the  property,  which  has  been  appraised  at  a  fair  market  value  of  $130,000. In  July,  Kirby  and  Bouvier  held  a  walk  through  of  the  property  for  interested  buyers.

We  had  an  entry  brought  by  this  week  from  David Quenneville’s  garden.  He  grew  this  big  candy  cane  radish  in  Whiting.  It  was  10.25  inches  around.  The  best  part  about  this  big  veggie  is  that  when  you  cut  it  open,  it  has  red  and  white  stripes  inside,  hence  the  name  -  candy  cane.

The  program  is  part  of  an  effort  at  the  college  to  provide  students  with  more  opportunities  in  practical  learning.  While  students  have  the  opportunity  to  learn  how  museums  and  archives  work  and  their  roles  in  society,  they  also  walk  away  with  a  practical  skill  set,  according  to  Vrooman.  Vrooman  and  Emmie  Donadio,  the  other  co-Âleader  of  the  program,  chose  Timothy  Case’s  work  for  the  students  to  showcase.  Vrooman  has  found  Case’s  work  intriguing  and  said  that  the  students  had  hundreds  of  photographs  to  choose  from  the  SUROLÂżF DUWLVWÂśV SRUWIROLR “The  students  had  to  whittle  down  (the  artwork)  very  quickly,â€?  Vrooman  said.  “We  picked  (Case)  because  he  is  someone  whose  work  I  think  is  interesting,  and  it’s  good  that  he’s  a  local  artist.  He  also  taught  a  FRXUVH DW WKH FROOHJH WKLV SDVW -DQX- ary,  so  I  know  that  he  works  well  with  students  and  that  he  really  en- joys  it.â€?

Monkton,  VT  Homeowner  Recommends  Bristol  Electronics We  decided  to  build  a  garage/shop  and  incorporate  solar  panels.  Dave  from  Bristol  Electronics  came  out  to  advise  us  on  our  options  and  helped  us  with  the  correct  orientation  and  pitch  of  our  roof.  Their  prices  were  less  expensive  than  the  competition  and  for  what  I  believe  is  a  superior  product.  The  installation  was  quick  with  no  problems.  Bristol  Electronics  is  a  locally  owned  and  operated  business  that  delivered  great  service  before,  during,  and  even  now  almost  a  year  later. We  have  been  producing  more  electricity  than  we  can  use  since  May  and  banking  the  credit  with  the  power  company.  We  don’t  anticipate  having  to  pay  another  electric  bill.  I  highly  recommend  solar  power  and  using  Bristol  Electronics  to  install  and  service  it.

Keep pets cool, comfortable and safe during hot weather MS — Summer may be a time for vacations and recreational activities for human beings, but pets may not be privy to the same luxuries. Summer recreation may not always include our four-legged friends, as summer heat and other issues can pose a threat to companion animals. As a result, pet parents must make pet safety a priority when the weather heats up. The Humane Society of the United States says that the summer months can be uncomfortable and dangerous for pets. Temperatures that may be tolerable for adults and children who are dressed accordingly may not be so for animals covered in fur. It’s vital to help pets stay comfortable and safe as summer temperatures heat up. Pet parents also must be aware of particular dangers that go hand-in-hand with summertime activities. • Practice vehicle safety. It is never acceptable to leave pets in parked cars, even for a minute. Temperatures inside vehicles can rise quickly and considerably in a matter of minutes, even with the windows opened slightly. HSUS says on an 85-degree-day, temperatures inside parked cars can reach 102 F within 10 minutes. Pets can suffer irreversible and even fatal organ damage in that period of time. If you have to run errands, keep dogs and cats at home where they will be more comfortable. • Stay off of hot asphalt. If you’ve ever walked on the hot sand or an asphalt driveway on a hot day, you understand just how scorching those surfaces can get. Dogs and cats do not have protective shoes to wear, so safeguard the delicate pads of their paws by keeping companion animals off of hot surfaces. Schedule walks in the early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are cooler. • Schedule a pet grooming visit. The American Veterinary Medical Foundation suggests speaking with your veterinarian to see if it’s appropriate for your pet to get clipped shorter or to be shaved in the summer. But a fur coat can offer protection from the sun, so weigh the pros and cons before taking action. Apply sunscreen to your dog’s skin if he or she has a thin coat. • Provide a way for pets to cool off. If you’re hot, chances are your pet is hot, too. Offer a means for pets too cool off, such as a wading pool when you are outside. Offer plenty of fresh water. Keep pets who do not enjoy the heat indoors with the air conditioner running on hot days. • Look for indicators of heat stress. The American Veterinary Association says heat stress is marked by heavy panting, dry or bright red gums, thick drool, vomiting, diarrhea, or wobbly legs. Move pets exhibiting such symptoms to a cool place, drape a damp towel over the animal’s body, rewetting the cloth frequently, and get the animal to the vet as soon as you possibly can. • Exercise caution in the water. Dogs can get swept away by rip currents just like human swimmers. If you will be boating, invest in a life jacket for your pooch and look for water hazards, such as currents, sink holes, and blue-green algae in lakes and ponds.
Submit your pet! If you’d like to include your pet as “Pet of the Week� simply include your pet’s name, gender, approximate age (if you know it), along with comments about the pet’s favorite activities, your favorite activity with the pet, what the pet enjoys eating, and any particular

How are caves created? By  SUSAN  SHEA To  enter  the  cave,  we  donned  hard  hats  and  descended  a  vertical  drop  with  the  aid  of  a  rope.  We  crawled  on  our  knees  and  bellies  through  a  wet,  narrow  passageway,  emerging  into  a  large  underground  chamber  that  con- tained  a  small  lake.  By  the  light  of  our  headlamps,  we  could  make  out  interesting  cave  forma- tions  —  icicle-Âlike  sta- lactites  hanging  from  the  cave  ceiling  and  stalag- mites  growing  up  from  WKH Ă€RRU ,Q WKH FRRO damp  darkness,  we  heard  the  slow  dripping  of  water.  Our  un- derground  adventure  left  us  covered  with  mud  —  our  skin  and  clothes  were  caked  with  it. This  cave,  located  in  eastern  New  York  state,  was  what  is  called  a  so- lution  cave,  typically  formed  from  the  action  of  groundwater  dissolving  carbonate  bedrock  such  as  limestone  or  marble.  The  process  begins  when  rainwater  absorbs  carbon  dioxide Â
The
from  the  atmosphere  as  it  drains  through  soil  and  decaying  vegetation,  resulting  in  a  weak  carbonic  acid.  This  acid  slowly  dissolves  miner- als  in  rock,  such  as  calcite  found  in  limestone,  and  over  time,  excavates  cavities  and  tunnels.  Most  of  this  pro- cess  takes  place  at  or  below  the  water  table.  The  next  stage  in  solu- tion  cave  development  oc- curs  after  the  water  table  sinks,  allowing  air  to  enter  the  acid-Âcarved  cavities.  As  carbon  dioxide  escapes  from  water  dripping  from  cave  walls  and  ceilings,  dissolved  minerals  in  the  water  come  out  of  solution,  forming  features  such  as  the  stalactites  we  saw.  Solution  caves  may  also  form  above  the  water  table  in  carbonate  bedrock  by  erosion  from  melting  glaciers  or  streams  that  dis- appear  underground.  One  doesn’t  hear  much  about  so- lution  caves  in  the  Northeast.  Com- pared  to  the  Southeastern  United  States,  with  its  extensive  cave  sys- tems,  our  areas  of  soluble  rock,  or Â

Switchel  has  made  a  comeback  in  recent  years  with  several  new  pro- ducers  in  Vermont.  It  was  a  popu-Â
lar  drink  in  the  nineteenth  century,  made  of  water  mixed  with  vinegar,  often  seasoned  with  ginger,  and  sweetened  with  honey,  maple  syrup  or  molasses.  Sometimes,  oatmeal  and  lemon  juice  were  added.  People  drank  the  beverage  to  replace  elec- trolytes  during  the  summer  months,  especially  during  haying.
