I lived in st Johnsbury for 4 years I just moved. There's not a whole lot but there's some things. Fair banks museum, gold crown lanes bowling alley, there's a couple bars.The strip on Railroad street past the big bridge has a few places. there's a bakery that makes fresh bread, boxcar and caboose - book and toy store, moose river lake and lodge - they sell expensive outdoorsy clothes and knickknacks like canes and wooden boxes and they have a jewelry store too and all kinds of stuff. There's 3 thrift shops, some resturants and fast food. Littleton is a 20-30 minute drive away into NH and has a bunch more. Theres more resturants and stores and you can walk on main street it's a beautiful old town there's a covered bridge next to an old mill thats now a pizza place and bar I believe. There's a movie theater a bunch of food places, There's a weird shop on called Aylakai that has all kinds spiritual stuff jewelry and clothes and a basement with smoking accessories and sex toy stuff. I'm sure I've missed a bunch but I don't wanna list things all day.

Phone companies intentionally slow down older phone models with software updates, I remember reading recently that some smart phone company has a hidden setting where you can switch for your phone to save your cpu or battery life as it ages. You can get a sturdy smart phone but it will be slow as shit eventually and unbearable.

Dude vermont is like 90% white people, people are getting pissed off because obviously statistically there would be more white people on trails in a state with mostly white people and it has nothing to do with black people not feeling like hiking, you know how me and my friends got into hiking? One friend would ask another to go hiking and that one would get into it and get his friends into it, if PoC want more hikers then they should do what everyone else does and try getting thir friends I to it and then their friends friends. Yes some people here are racist I think thats Tru for every state especially older generations but you can't let that stop you from doing what you like, while I've never felt racism I've been in countries that despise Americans and would swear at me when they heard me speaking English, do you think I let that affect my experience? Do you think I stayed inside and hid? No, I went out and had fun and ignored ignorant asshole people, as should everyone, regardless of color.

This is the problem with racism right here, you don't feel comfortable with people that aren't your race because you see people as their race, see them as people not the color of their skin. Who cares there's no black people hiking there's PEOPLE, I get wanting to be around people of your culture but I don't fly to europe and complain there's not enough Americans walking around to make me feel comfortable this is ridiculous. Noone is stopping anyone of any skin color from buying hiking gear and going out on public trails. Also you don't hike to see people you hike to see the outdoors, what is this nonsense article lmao.

Go to home depot they have sheds you could use one of those as a coop, they might even have coops, check out farming suppliers too like tractor supply you might be able to order something they don't have in stock but carry on the website.
