It&#8217;s a glimpse of across-the-lake culture for Vermonters, and features stories about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7dvt.com\/2012adirondack-woodsmen-school\">Adirondack Woodsmen&#8217;s School<\/a> at Paul Smith&#8217;s, North Country <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7dvt.com\/2012adirondack-wine\">wineries<\/a>, the debate about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7dvt.com\/2012rails-or-trails-new-yorkers-clash-over-future-adirondack-train-line\">rail line<\/a> from Old Forge to Lake Placid, and a personal essay on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7dvt.com\/2012tube-therapy\">tubing down the Hudson<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s all pretty summer-y and upbeat.

This year&#8217;s issue is a careful counterpoint that works to point out similarities between New York and Vermont, not differences. Take the story on mid 20th century artist artist <a href=\"http:\/\/www.7dvt.com\/2012remembering-rockwell\">Rockwell Ken<\/a>t, a &#8220;ballsy, left-wing activist as well as a prolific painter, best-selling author, dairy farmer, boreal adventurer, Thoreau-like mystic and notorious philanderer,&#8221; with deep connections to Vermont and northern New York both.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m curious what you think.
