The Best Attractions In Shaftsbury

  • 1. Robert Frost Stone House Museum Shaftsbury
    Robert Lee Frost was an American poet. His work was initially published in England before it was published in America. Known for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech, Frost frequently wrote about settings from rural life in New England in the early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical themes. Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry. He became one of America's rare public literary figures, almost an artistic institution. He was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 1960 for his poetic works. On July 22, 1961, Frost was named poet laureate of Vermont.

Best Of the Road - Road Rally - Meet the team : Blue Lollipop Road

I grew up in the tiny Vermont town of Shaftsbury where Mom always encouraged me to get out and see things beyond where I grew up. 17 years ago I decided to explore that world she told me was out there, so I packed my car and left Vermont. For the years since leaving my town of 3,500, Mom has always been my biggest cheerleader and support while I've been traveling the highways of the U.S.
In 2008 I started a blog called Blue Lollipop Road to share my experiences: (
I've logged thousands and thousands of miles and explored all 50 states. (I've driven to 49, but Hawaii required a plane ticket.) Along the way I've swapped stories with locals over coffee at Denny's at 4 am in Oklahoma City, I've tucked my Honda between big rigs on nights when I slept in my car at rest stops in desolate New Mexico, and I've been the only single girl in a 4-door car (with only paper maps) among all 18 wheelers driving The Great Alaska Highway. I've lived life on the road for weeks and months at a time, getting up before the sun to kick-start to the early morning miles. I've driven Pacific to Atlantic in 2.5 days and then back, and more than once- alone. In March, 2012 I was featured in a Forbes.com travel article about road tripping:
(
My favorite times have always been spent exploring grassroots America for yummy eats, hidden gems, open spaces, and chance encounters with hilarious characters who I'd never otherwise meet. I live for the road and want to share this Best of the Road Rally experience with Mom because she's a huge reason I became a road warrior! Mom and I can entertain ourselves on a dollar, talk to anyone, she's a blast to spend time with, and a perfect partner in crime.
Pick us Peacock ladies! Mom and I will bring the FUN! :)
