WEATHER SPECIAL
If there is anyone disgusted
with Tryon’s winter weather the
past three months we would like
to refer them to the kind of
weather they have been having
at Sherwood Farms, Bristol, Ver
mont. A letter was written to
Professor W. F. Bryan, by a
friend. Here it is in part:
“There is little to record here
except the damnedest winter that
the place has seen in years. After
February had piled up an unusual
amount of snow, and incidentally
left the town snow plow out of
commission in our dooryard, March
came in with a roar and a wind
that bowled me over on my back
when I tried to step out into it.
It left drifts ten feet and over
between us and the bottom of the
hill and our only resource was
snow shoes. After wearing our
selves out trying to lug stuff up
on snowshoes we got a sled through
with a load that insured us so we
have been completely all right
but a little amazed at what the
place could think up for us. Since
then it has rained and snowed
and completed our isolation. Men
came up on snowshoes to repair
the plow and it finally left us one
afternoon to take six hours to
reach the bottom of the hill and
then give up the ghost, and at that
it had had to go over drifts rather
than through them. But a bull
dozer finally after three weeks
cleared things up so that we could
get the car down and leave it at
the bottom of the hill. So present
procedures are to walk down and
pick up the car when we have to
go anywhere. But we haven’t been
tempted as there have been few
signs of robins two weeks over
due. This morning the snow is

blowing in horizontally before a
high west wind, but April is just
around the corner and we are
expecting better things. But you
can imagine that we are a little
fed up with snow now that we
have had enough for boasting
purposes.”
