Purple Knights Pizza : When you gotta have it!
Ever since Zackery's Pizza on College Parkway closed, I have been looking for just a good ol' pizza & grinder shop. Well, I have found one.
Since I have started working at St. Mike's, I have had occasion to frequent Purple Knights Pizza.
So far, so great. :-)
For more details, here is a write up from the St. Mike's on-line newspaper, The Echo.
My favorite sandwich : The Italian w/extra oil & vinegar
PS: They have great brownies, but they go really quick.

Our Local "Dump"
Chittenden County Waste District website is an excellent resource to learn about recycling in our area. The transfer station (a.k.a "The Dump") is actually quite close to The Fort with convenient hours. If you want to know where and how to get rid of appliances, computers, tires, brush & grass clippings, paint, cardboard, etc. Their website is a great place to start.
I know that sometimes our blue box is overflowing. As I am going out to the Lange Farm Hannaford's on Saturday, it is a simple & quick detour to the transfer station just off the corner of Route 2a & Susie Wilson Road. You are normally assessed 50 cents to dump the contents into the big bin for recycling. No need to sort it, their new process handles that for you.
I have always found it quick, easy and worth the 50 cents per box or the couple of dollars to properly dispose of an old appliance or furniture. It beats looking at my dishwaser or old coach sit by the dumpster for a weeks while Alliance lines up the labor and truck to have it removed ($$$), then properly disposed of ($).
If you have questions, I have found that the CWSD staff friendly and responsive.

Fort Ethan Allen History Website at St. Mike's
In case, you haven't seen this website before. A Special Topis in Art & Architectural History class at Saint Micheal's College put together a rather nice website about Fort Ethan Allen.
If you are not familiar with the history of Fort Ethan Allen, this is a great place to start.
