Dive Bombing
Canada Goose

Photographer Joyce Hunt was enjoying a soccer tournament Saturday at the Stockbridge school, that featured youngsters from Rochester, Bethel, and Stockbridge.
She took time to photograph a lone Canadian goose overhead that seemed to be circling the field, squawking. Moments later, the goose headed for the field, zooming in agressively and sending soccer kids running in every direction in alarm and amusement. After it cleared the field of pesky humans, it strutted with wings extended.
Then, Hunt said, it merely "strolled off the field" before taking off. "Who would have thought such a thing," the amazed photographer said Wednesday as she dropped off her startling photos.

Old Town Hall Restoration Work
Is Progressing On Schedule. By Mary Anderson
Driving through Bethel, it is difficult not to notice the huge cranes parked outside of the old Town Hall building. Upon closer inspection, one can see the work in progress on the roof, chimney and tower. What is not visible, is the major work in progress inside the building, which is strengthening the roof and helping to ensure that the building will stand for another 115 years.

Vermont Highways

In Central Vermont in August, one of the best things to do is just drive around and look around.
Photographer Tim Calabro caught the cyclists as they passed historic Bethel Gilead Church, one of many lovely old rural churches which are still kept up by local historical societies and are used for summer services.
