This Is What Life In Vermont Looked Like In 1937. WOW.

These wonderful photographs give us a glimpse of what life was like in Vermont in 1937.  From people, to places, to work, to recreational activities, these shots show us how much Vermont has changed….  And in some ways, how it hasn’t.  Enjoy this step back in time!

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
