A new Dynstar I class opened today, discussing the state of Vermont. The name of the state in French means green mountain (Vert Mont).Vermont is almost the smallest state in terms of population of any other US state, it has the least populated capital: Montpelier.
The state has a large Quebec French influence and several people in the Northern part of the state still speak Quebec French.
Some famous people were born there: Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormon church, John Deer, one of the inventor of the tractor, Calvin Coolidge, the only American president born on the 4th of July! Montpellier is the only US capital without a Mc Donald restaurant.
The state is beautiful especially in the fall when the trees turn different colors (the state tree is the sugar mapple tree) , in the winter when the snow blanket the State (great skying on Jay´s Peak), in the spring when the landscape turns green and millions of flowers bloom and finally in the summer when you discover the beauty of the back country by hiking its hills and valleys.
