Happy Tuesday,
It was a beautiful weekend with gentle, typical-of-autumn chilly breezes and clear skies following some pretty schizophrenic snow and rain on Friday. I made my way over Moretown Mountain to Northfield for Cabot Hosiery’s annual sock sale, often called the eighth wonder of the world, for another year’s worth of socks.
It’s an amazing scene with cars bearing license plates from all over the place. For two weekends every year, the factory is open to the public, and thousands upon thousands of people turn out. Cabot Hosiery has several sock brands, including Darn Tough, which supplies socks to the military. It’s great to know that such high-quality items are still produced in this country, and only a few miles from home. If you’re in the area, it’s worth checking out next weekend!
As always, thanks for reading, and keep in touch.
