Vermont

Greetings from VERMONT - the whitest state in the union. Seriously - I had to look up some population data for my project and it turns out that the state is 97% caucasian. No kidding. 97%! i haven't seen a person of color since i arrived two weeks ago. Is this what the entire country of Canada looks like? There's a lot of classic rock radio stations in this state...LOTS of Bob Seger and Bruce Springsteen.

I am not 100% certain, but shouldn't a state have its own airport??? How can a whole state not have a single airport? Forget Southwest - you can't fly into this state on ANY airline. My entire travel itinerary consists "just get get me CLOSE and I'll take it from there". Except there doesn't seem to be any interstates either. No airports and no interstates. Its totally a new reality show - Escape from Vermont. No wonder there's no diversity, you have to practically BREAK INTO the state.

and its cold.
