Vermont Winters Government surveyors knocked on the door of a man who lived in Vermont near the border between Vermont and New Hampshire and asked if they could enter his land to survey the border. He said no problem. They came back later that day and said ""Sir, we've got some interesting news. You don't live in Vermont- you actually live in New Hampshire!"" The man breathed a huge sigh of relief, and said ""That is fantastic! I was getting sick of those long Vermont winters!""
