We've had bricks and mortar retail stores since 1976 and selling things online is a whole different business. That being said, it's been lots of fun trying to figure it all out. There's a great book called "Website Design for ROI" (Return on Investment) that was recommended to us by an online marketing expert and it's been extremely helpful. It's very simple and straightforward. Ava, we’re learning as we go about e-commerce and it’s been quite an education.

If you don't have them already, there are three magazines you should read: Vermont, Vermont Life, and Yankee. They're all wonderful in their own way and will provide lots of helpful insight and practical information. What town will you be moving to? We love all parts of the state and enjoy driving around whenever we have some free time. If you check online, there's somthing called the 251 club. You can print a list of the 251 towns in Vermont and keep it in the car, checking them off as you visit each one. We have about 2/3 of them checked already, but recently learned that the real die-hards take a picture in each town to prove they've been there. We haven't gone that far but it's still fun to explore all parts of the state - especially at different times of the year. Brian and Lisa, Welcome to Vermont!!!

I have never been, but my husband lived in the NE until he was 14 yr. old. I look for pictures, comments, stories or anything I can get my hands about the state. I'm so excited! We are from Arkansas.

You know, the old image of a starving artist has really transformed into an image of someone who spends their days doing something they love. They've figured out that life is about more than just money and we love doing what we can to support that philosophy. Glad you like the socks! We love those socks too!
