Eat Your Heart Out Bear Grylls

A curious sight on Friday afternoon at Killington Post Office where a car load of middle-aged men adorned with green beads and Jack Daniel’s tartan caps that had bright orange hair attached to them, accosted Rut Girl. They adopted her because she had the same colored hair. For the record, Rut Girl does not have bright orange hair, so she was slightly miffed but happy to accept their gift of beads.

When pressed on their attire, the men simply claimed this was how they usually go out. Fair enough; although we expect the striking head wear was something they attained during Jack Daniel’s weekend. The group had hit the slopes that day and told us the conditions were pretty slushy. When that led them to suggest we make slushies from the melting snow banks mixed with a substance only Bear Grylls would drink (see below), it was time for Rut Girl to move on. The jovial lads moved on to the Wobbly Barn where we can only imagine what hijinks they got up to.
